Newbish question: Multitudes of opponents?

from GalCiv3 Forums

Pardon for me for a newbish question.  I thought I read somewhere that one could have dozens of opponents in GalCiv3.  When I chose a Huge galaxy, though, all I could manage was five opponents.  Did I miss an option somewhere?  Thanks in advance.

You need custom factions in order to have more opponents.  Currently this can be done through modding using the XML files, but sometime soon (ish?) we will have an in-game custom faction builder and make lots of opponents to fill out your galaxies.  A 100-player game is possible. (not 100 human players!) It can be done currently.  But it will be much easier once we get the custom faction builder.
