The huge map is really too big for 6 or 8 players. I have just achieved supremacy victory by just annexing territory and no wars at all. This should not be the case for supremacy. Supremacy should be about war and domination, but that is not really needed as there is way too much territory to annex with influence without any war. Please allow 8 players for the large map, which should solve this problem.

Thank you for the game, I enjoy it.

in my opinion the Huge map is 'too small'. It needs to be bigger.

I think they have changed the map sizes since EL 1 and humankind because of the performance loss on average machines due to all the new animations effects and map activity.

A lot of lag can appear on less powerful PC's.

Strong PC's can handle it but I think the opposite of you.

We need even larger maps and need Extra Huge for like 150 x 200 or 200x200 perhaps even 250 x 200 worlds.

If smaller maps don't allow 8 players then I see that as a game design issue. You should be able to select 8 players on even the smallest of maps, for a very quick game.

The problem isn't the maps, its with the victory conditions and how they are too easy to accidently accomplish.

Just turn them off and go full conquest only mode

I think the problem isn't that the map is too big, rather, it is that the AI is to passive and doesn't expand aggresivly enough if at all. I had far more tension with the minor factions and forretresses then the other AI empires.
