As for having a 5000 by 5000 sector map, it's a shame that Supremacy wasn't a browser game and all the calculations were done on a server. Oh well, there's always BOTF5... :P
I'm not sure anyone would live long enough to finish a game with 2.5 million sectors, even if it wasn't logistically impossible. You would have to play every day, exploring at least 1,000 sectors a day for over 60 years straight just to explore the entire galaxy (not counting actually building anything), and I'm sure you'd lose interest after the first few years.

I may have neglected to mention the requisite supercomputer.

For those of us without a supercomputer, how about a user-definable map size? That way, those folks with bleeding edge systems can have huge galaxies, while folks like me can have a smaller map, but can grow as the system capabilities grow...
