Arcs
What changes in setup for a 2-player game?
The rulebook states this directly.

Four things change. Two clusters are out of play. Each player puts 2 ships in each of the two 1C systems (4 total) instead of 2 in one. The six resource tokens matching the covered planets go onto the ambition boxes (Material and Fuel on Tycoon, Weapons on Warlord, Relics on Keeper, Psionics on Empath), where they act as a neutral third competitor when ambitions are scored. And the player without initiative may mulligan their starting hand. Everything else is as in 3 players.
