I am playing a Gigantic galaxy / tight clusters and I think there should be a lot more stars in a galaxy this size. I am playing against 2 computer players, and I hate to imagine what kind of space-related nightmare it would be to play with ALL races active....

I have yet to encounter the Iconians, but I wonder if the name came from the ST TNG episode "Contagion;" "Iconia: Coordinates 227 Mark 358, Planet II.

These worlds were either colonized or probably conquered by the Iconi
