Reversing the concept of RWIAB...
Races:
+f races only - defined as factory settings MUST be 15/x/25
AR races banned
CA races banned (because of orbital adjuster)
All the other PRTs are fine, but I'd *prefer* not to see any HE races...
Galaxy:
Accelerated BBS Play: Enabled
No Random Events: Enabled
Size: Medium
Density: Sparse
Players: Farther
Rules:
No cheats/exploits are permitted
Chaff is allowed
'Reasonable' fleet splitting is permitted, 'abuse' of fleet splitting is banned.
-- Use of fleet splitting to try to get attacking fleets past defending fleets is abuse.
---- An ATTACKING fleet may only be split in order to attack multiple targets.
---- A fleet may be split as many times as you like IF the ENTIRE fleet is RETREATING.
Victory:
Rank 1 after 2525
PPS after 2510
Generations:
M-F at 3AM GMT
I will generate 3 turns at a time for the first two weeks.
If Ron has space, the game will be hosted on autohost. Otherwise I will host the game using 2.7J RC4.
-----
I'm ideally looking for 6-8 players. If we have more or less players I will adjust the galaxy settings to suit.
I can see the nightmare scenarios of playing in a game I am hosting, so I will ONLY be hosting and NOT playing

Easy, Mr Shouty, you'll make me cry
The idea is that ALL the empires are 15/X/25 - reverse of -F races. If they are *all* 15/x/25, then they are all viable by definition... I might be tempted to lower the fac settings to 15/x/15, or 10/x/25, but lower destroys the concept. This isn't just a 'no -f', it's a +f...

My reasoning for (possibly) banning 3 of the PRTs:
AR - No factories.
CA - With so much emphasis on heavy investment on planets, I'm worried the orbital adjuster provides a much too easy way to capture a planet with factories intact.
HE - I'm not sure that I want ALL the races to be 4% tri-immune...

CA
IFE
NRSE
TT
OMRM
NAS
Grav .65 - 1.76
Temp -48 - 80
Rad 36 - 68
1/24 starting (gets better FAST!)
19%
1/1000 pop eff
15/9/23 No G Box
10/4/13 mines
Bio Cheap, rest exp
The No G box hurts at first. I've taken this race to 80k with minimal MM in a small packed. Easily could have doubled it with a few hours of hard core MM.
+F races are viable, but up against QS/HG, they just can't compete early on.

Also, what do people think about the victory condition? I might set it back to 2525 instead of 2500, because our economies are probably all gonna have pretty slow ramp up times.
