The 2-galaxy-per-player cap was recently reintroduced.
This means that if you are currently playing in Supernova, you will not be able to join both MW56 and Balius 2. You’ll need to decide which one you prefer. With that in mind, you may want to read the Balius 2 announcement thread before registering for MW56.
Patron Fighters and above are exempt from this restriction and may play in as many galaxies as they’d like.
Family size: Flexible (see “Introducing Flexible Family Sizes” below)

Players can NOT choose to stay in fam after round.
Starting Resources: 10x
Max Defense Stations: 3

Introducing Flexible Family Sizes
Instead of pre-determining the family size like usual, we are going to try something new: the galaxy is opening with only 2 spots per family available with a spot opening up for every family once all fams fill up.
Other changes
The 35% NW restriction on attacking smaller empires has returned. We’ll be giving it a go this round but afterward it will become another galaxy setting to vote on.
Any given planet is about 3x more likely to have a morale bonus. This is a permanent change across all new galaxies.
To be honest, take a look at the setup for next galaxy - that will definitely end your issue - it is a temporary fix and most likely just a 1 round setup but will be a nice change of pace from farming the bottom 3 fams
I’m not accusing families of farming… Not specific families. But clearly someone farmed them and they couldn’t even hold their HS… Which in a gal of 9… means it’s an issue.
Never said you farmed to get into HS, just that someone did.
Aren’t empires auto deleted after being inactive for so long? I am almost positive that is what happened… haven’t seen any of these fams in the uni attack news.
