@Mr K
Maybe talk with game host and ask for release of game files with all possible players turn files (m and x if posssible) you could
then zoom on most effective players to see how they do things. But it would take a whille to resole this game.
Hm.. if that would be possible I would like to see this game this way too.

The big issue with turn files being released is that people often exchange email addresses via the in-game messaging system and publishing those isn't really kosher.
I have given some thought to releasing races when the game is finished and I make the Game Stories post, but I'd of course only do it with the consent of the designers. It's a fair way down the track in any case; I'd be surprised if we're done before Christmas.

In Plain Vanilla, I was extremely lucky to partner with someone who was willing to be that mentor. Prior to that game, I was in a VERY similar situation - an extreme beginner, having not played a game in many years, having only been soundly beaten even then. After my partner and I fared as well as we did in PV, Altruist (the host of FA) designated me an advanced beginner. We did that well, with my mentor's help. I think a partner/mentorship game, with experienced players paired with beginners, would be a VERY interesting game. This one probably cannot be this game, however.
There are enough people here, of different levels of experience, that I think any new player will have a chance of doing well. And consider this: with this game going, along with Little Eddie's side game at the same time, this community is unlikely to get another game going this year. It's entirely likely that your choices are this game, or nothing. And in many ways, this is the best way to become that experienced player.
Keep calm and carry on!Report message to a moderator

I am willing to mentor someone in this game. I would consider myself an advanced player, though not an expert.
What this means to me: I would be willing to pull someone in now. Exchange email addresses, skype, discord, etc. We would discuss my race design. Once the game started I would have my mentee also receive the game turns, and I would explain my moves, design, strategy, etc. That person would also be BCC'd into email communications with other players, etc. The mentee would not have my upload password.
Probably a little boring from the mentee side, since that person is not actually playing, just watching.

Hi ,
if Mr. K is not playing you can count me in, but I have to try to get a workable race file for his setting.
By the way I would not matter if my files are shared after the game.

Alright, we have our full circus. As such, and since it's the 21st in most of the world now anyway, signups are closed.
List of players:
LittleEddie (race file received)
ludek (race file received)
Raythe (race file received)
platon79 (race file received)
Vaaqens (race file received)
Ludi Magister (race file received)
scottsch (no race file)
vmanuel (no race file)
Abbadon (no race file)
Raindancer (no race file)
jscoble (no race file)
Braindead (no race file)
dracul104 (no race file)
antey007 (no race file)
dlrichert (no race file)

If you could all get your race files in by April 25th, that would be nice. (As a reminder, my email is @ gmail.com and it's the same username as here.)

2. Can we set battle orders like we want ?
2. Yes, except for the "Attack Who" of the default battle order (covered under "Starbase Friendly Fire: Banned").
This is a bit ambiguous. Can you clarify what is banned? Is it setting "Attack Who" to be a friend when this friend is in orbit of one of your bases (what if they aren't in orbit of your bases)? Is it setting "attack who" to attack a specific player regardless if they are a friend or an enemy? Any changes to "Attack Who" of the default plan?
ccmaster asked if battle orders could be set to whatever you want. I gave a qualified "yes", with the exception referring to the "Starbase Friendly Fire" mention in the OP (reproduced below for convenience).
Quote:Starbase Friendly Fire: Banned - The "Attack Who" in your default battle plan must be set to "Nobody", "Enemies" or "Neutrals & Enemies".
Setting the "Attack Who" of the default battle plan (used by all your starbases) to "Everyone" or to a specific player (i.e. any setting other than the three specified) causes Starbase Friendly Fire. You may choose freely among the three choices specified as permitted.

I actually want to play a game where ccmaster's HE is allowed outside of 1x1 duels.
Sure, but this game (with AccBBS off and CA handicapped) isn't the right one for doing that. Maybe you can make the game next year and make it "all races allowed".
