Default Re: [Game] Generate a military sci-fi setting

I had put a couple of hooks in my answers to hopefully help cover the descrepancies mentioned, the area around the gas giants was just "largely claimed" not blockaded or even nessicarily settled.

Regarding the human population there is a comment about population size being politically important in answer 20. Also assuming digtal uploads count as "legally human" several other factors might increase growth rate. If for example the rather than die people where uploaded. Genetic modification suggests cloning as well.
Edit: the number of people who got left behind on earth during the exodus is another factor if the number needs to be reduced

I also had the active alien population at 120 million but I left space for artificial hybernation, stored genetic material etc. I didn't read that the pods where zoo like enclosures either, I was functioning on the theory they where closer to settlement pods.
