hi
i would like to play a game with some space in it. as i have not hosted many games yet (and no long term game at all) i search for some tips and also some players.
at the moment i'm thinking about the following but as said above i'm realy open to suggestions and would like some input. so tell me what you think about my thoughts down below.
8-13 -> large normal
13+ -> huge
slow tech
no AcBBS
no publich player scores for at least 100y
team/aliance win possible
also i'm think about something that i read in the "iron Legion" ad.
» Races should have a points handicap thusly:
AR: 50
SS/PP: 100
WM/HE: 125
SD/IS: 150
IT/JoaT: 175
CA: 200
ciao markus

Hi!

I completely agree. Being a MM freak I limited myself to games with less than 30 planets per player. I did a mistake again, joining a game with about 50, fighting an advanced (expert?) SD, so my turn takes now more than 4 hours to finish. I'm doing quite good, so it's still interesting, but less and less. I'd like to live too.
BR, Iztok

Robert wrote on Wed, 22 October 2003 05:27 | i have an idea how to manage balancing PRT powers...
what if the game is made up like an auction?
allow all PRTs only once, the one who's bid has the most leftover points for the PRT plays it.
so if one is willing to spend 200 leftovers for his CA and still thinks he can win, ok... maybe the AR with 0 leftover points is stronger...

Wow, cool idea, Robert. I like it. Freakyboy does have a point though, about losing potential participants who have their heart set on playing a certain race.

Nah, I'm trying to kick the habit.
I'M NOT AN EXPERT AND I'M OFTEN PROVEN WRONG. TAKE THAT INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN YOU READ MY POSTS.
Math? Ummm, sure! I do FREESTYLE math.Report message to a moderator

The scores are also made public when a winner is declared in a non-PPS game. Thus by setting some very easy to achieve victory conditions and at least X years must pass before a winner is declared the score will then be made public on year X(+1?).
