I think the scenario you are talking about was the Master of Orion, Jr. scenario for Civ 2. It came in one of the Civ 2 XPs (can't remember which one). It had different planets, asteroids, nebulas, even stars. However, the entire map was land based--no water whatsoever. Even space was land based, and all the ships were land based units. That way you could build a colony or starbase, whatever it was, anywhere on the map, even in the middle of space. Space tiles provided a certain amount of food and shields (orbital production I guess), but the little planet tiles provided even more food and shields. BTW, it was not a random map--it was a pre-made map. However, I don't know that you would want to take the all-land approach, because then you wouldn't have any use for AT-ATs, stormtroopers, Jedis, etc.

Wait a second are you telling me Jedis, STs, and AT-ATs are not land units? What the f**k?

Of course they're land units. What he meant was that if we had a map that was entirely land-based (even the space treated as land), you'd have Jedi units, etc. freely moving through space. Only ships would make sense on that type of map. But don't worry, this mod won't be that way.

Oh good I was going to go nuts if they made it that way. Whew!

So, now that the insulting and swearing has ceased let's get to more important matters

More important matters = graphics! There are tons of them.
