    many thanks! #2 was particularly useful and lead me to 'Geoff's Climate Cookbook' at http://www.compulink.co.uk/~morven/w...t/climate.html which i found most helpful for designing the climate based on issues like axial tilt and land mass sizes. great stuff!

    still nothing on working out the tidal effects of the two moons but no worries, i'm infinitely further ahead now than i was before.

    Theres been several threads about multi moon scenarios and whether they are stable, can the moons collide and tidal stuff. Depending on how accurate you need the data seems to give more and more complex techniques to get at it.
