OK... I made a few changes...
Please note that the map images are far from done. After I get a gameplay stamp I will do a complete clean up of everything.

=====================================================================
- Increased size to 1000x800 (we are back to over-sized)
- Added 2 systems back so we are at 22 players (or 40) depending on how we decide to go with starts.
- I thought about it and decided to move the starbase bombardment of adjacent sectors to 1 research. Provided that conditional bombardments get implemented before we hit beta on this map. If they don't then I will change it to assaults instead of bombards.
- Changed nebulons to +5 bonus from autodeploy 5,
- Changed nebulons system sector from decay 3 to killer 5,
- Increased artifact bonus to 6,12,18.
- Added a bonus for holding nebulon of double alien artifact bonus.
- Starbases no longer have autodeploy 1.
- Homeworlds now +1 each instead of autodeploy 2.
Here is bonus with homeworld, starbase, alien artifact, and nebulon
1 - 1 + 1 = 3
2 - 1 + 4 = 5
3 - 1 + 6 = 7
4 - 1 + 8 = 9
5 - 1 + 10 + 5 = 16
6 - 2 + 12 + 6 + 6 = 26
7 - 2 + 21 + 7 + 6 + 10 = 46
8 - 2 + 24 + 8 + 6 + 10 = 50
9 - 3 + 27 + 9 + 6 + 10 = 55
10 - 3 + 30 + 20 + 6 + 10 = 69
11 - 3 + 33 + 22 + 6 + 10 = 75
12 - 4 + 36 + 24 + 18 + 22 = 106
13 - 4 + 39 + 26 + 18 + 22 = 115
14 - 4 + 42 + 28 + 18 + 22 = 120
15 - 5 + 45 + 30 + 18 + 22 = 126
16 - 5 + 64 + 32 + 18 + 22 = 147
17 - 5 + 68 + 34 + 18 + 22 = 153
18 - 6 + 72 + 36 + 36 + 40 = 202
19 - 6 + 76 + 38 + 36 + 40 = 209
20 - 6 + 80 + 40 + 36 + 40 = 214
21 - 7 + 84 + 42 + 36 + 40 = 222
22 - 7 + 88 + 44 + 36 + 40 = 228
23 - 7 + 92 + 46 + 36 + 40 = 234
Note: Additional 42 are possible from +1/3
