For the KotH match, I would prefer the following settings:

Geo Balance Mod 2;
Manual placement that doesn't put us at the far ends of the galaxy but puts a bit of difference between us.

Secondary suggestions (because I like to make the game interesting):

0 racial points or 3,000 racial points;
(and/or) Full tech;
(and/or) No PPBs.

Response, Glyn?
Slynky,

For a regular game I’m ok with:
Geo Balance Mod 2
Manual Placement.
Three good worlds.
No Intel


Or for interesting, what do you think of:
Full tech
Geo Balance Mod 2
No Warp points connected.
One Good Planet.
Random Placement since there wouldn’t be any warp points.
No Ancient race or Religious.
[and/or] Intel
You offer some interesting choices fit for a king, methinks!

Hmmmmm....

I love your imagination and counter with a slight adjustment:

Full tech
Geo Balance Mod 2
No Warp points connected.
Three Good Planets.
Random Placement since there wouldn’t be any warp points.
No Ancient race or Religious.
ZERO racial points

AND, a twist that can be verified by game ending (if necessary but I don't think it necessary)...a gentleman's agreement that no system have more than 4 warpholes.

It could be quite an interesting game!
