+From here you need to enter player names, decide the number of
+planets, and how many turns are allowed. (Don't worry, you can add
+more later) You can also reject the map, until a you find a galaxy
+layout you like. After this, just click <guibutton>OK</guibutton>

+<para>The Planet Status indicator on the right is
+your source for intelligence on the state of the Galaxy. Your spies
+will report on the status of your rivals, but not on the
+native-controlled planets. The information present in the display is:
+<guilabel>Planet name</guilabel>, <guilabel>Owner</guilabel>,
+<guilabel>Production</guilabel> rate, fleet strength
+(<guilabel>Ships</guilabel> and <guilabel>Kill
+percent</guilabel>).</para>
+
+<para>The <guilabel>Production</guilabel> rate is the number of ships
+that planet will construct in one turn. The fleet strength is the
+number of <guilabel>Ships</guilabel> currently in place at the
+planet. And, the <guilabel>Kill percent</guilabel> is a measure of the
+effectiveness of the ships produced at that planet. Attack fleets take
+the kill percentage of their planet of departure, and defense fleets
+use the kill percentage of the planet they are defending.</para>
