maximum number of races

[chewy027]

I realize there would br a lot more to handle intelligence wise, but to me this makes the game that much more challenging and interesting. Simultaneous movement can take care of the waiting between parts and overall the diplomatic part of the game would be a lot more intricate. Instead of there being one or two empires that expand and become huge there would be many small empires. Many of wich would form alliances and create, in essence, a large empire. There would be a delicate ballance of power. So if you were to go to war with say four other empires. It would really be equal to one in a twenty race game. What do you think?
