Am i wrong are all the maps have random planets ?? Thats just silly, every balanced rts should give all the players an even start ... when a TEC player has 2x terran planets near him its a free win - no colonization tech so no research stations needed, his population bonus research works on his capital and all terran. Just put down two military stations and spam figs/lrms and there is no way to stop it.

Am i missing something here ? What can other players do ? they cant stop him from colonizing so early and later he already has 2 caps and can produce ships at a much faster rate :/
