Inspired by the Galactic Civilisations II Dread Lords and the "AI passwords" thread. I'm not entirely sure whether this is possible.
Here's the idea.
You set up a normal game in probably a large universe. Have a lot of players, possibly (if someone (like me) had an addiction to roleplaying) flavored to fit the GalCiv 2 races. The game would be fairly normal for the first 30 years or so.
Then another player starts off their race.
Except that instead of a normal race, they get the Expert Macinti race, an AR with 1 in 2 hab, 20% growth, all positive LRTs, 10 res divisor, and 4 cheap techs. These are the "Dread Lords".
Everyone else then faces a problem, in that they have to stop the Dread Lords from becoming invincible and wtfpwning everyone, while at the same time having to worry about their power relative to the other races and not dooming themselves while saving the galaxy.
Victory conditions would be the standard ones.
Who likes the idea?
