    What is the Uber setting?? I can't figure it out. Which is a bigger between Uber and Epic for the SIZE setting?

    It's not the size that matters, it's how you use it

    Whatever he is talking about, I would safely assume that Uber is the biggest.

    It's sorted by size in the list, so Uber is the biggest, "obviously" ;)

    Why is it on the Uber setting i always have an ALLY who pretty much kills the enemy more frequently than I do, but on the Epic setting, its only me and the enemy.

    I am kinda getting sick of building my army, and the mission is done before i even fire a shot.

    I've edited the comments, which were out of date

    Code:
            numberOfSystems: [
                    18, // Small
                    24, // Medium
                    36, // Large
                    54, // Epic
                    78 // Uber
            ],
    

    The math for subcommanders is weird and possibly bugged; the result is that the chance of getting a subcom decreases every time the game "draws a card" on all sizes expect uber.

    Did you mean except uber? So with Uber I will always have subcommanders?

    Not always, the only always is that it's always a chance, it's just less likely the smaller the system gets. With Uber it crosses the line to becoming more likely each star (and there are a lot of stars), but I'm mostly done with an Uber game now and haven't seen a subcom (other than the two in the loadout)
