18 Players?

Yes, two small packed with 9 player each. Currently on turn 23 and 7 respectively.

I think results based on historical handicaps give us a yardstick.

Not having played multi-player before I got most of my information from reading these boards and the old news group articles.

I am hosting a current game that is coming to the end. I only could fit 16 players in my game and had no restrictions on races except CA had 110 point pentalty and JOAT had a 55 point penalty (NAS allowed). These are the known race breakdowns:

CA (110 point penalty): 0
JOAT (55 point penalty): 1 (-f race)
IS: 4
IT: 5
SS: 2
AR: 1
Unknown: 3 (I am playing in the game which is why I don't know a few of these races)
There were quite a few very good players in this game. The ISs and the ITs dominated the game

I definately underestimated the strength of IS (mostly because I've never played one before) and will add a small penalty to them next time. I will reduce the penalty to IT a little but leave the no IFE trait as a handicap. I played mostly IT for a long time and know well what they are capable of.

I want to encourage people to try all the races, and give everyone race a fighting chance if played well. SD appears unpopular, while most likely underated, I am going to reduce the penalty a little in the hopes someone will pick it.
