Hi

IMPORTANT NOTE!!
To join the game, send me your Race file, Password, And your ranking or get ranked by PM'ing donjon!!

My first game I hosted EVER was a HUGE succes with almost no problems. This has motivated me to host a few more! These games will all be Fast and Furious with a Roman Number on them.

Name: Fast and Furious II
Max Players: 6
Galaxy size: Small
Density: Dense
Acelerated BBS: on
Galaxy clumping: on
Player positions: Distant
Events: on
Ranked: Yes
Pregame Diplo Banned!

Cheats allowed: Chaff, Split Fleet
All others banned

Winner : Last team of 2 standing or by general consensus.

CA Banned

Please no pre-arranged diplomacy. All initial communication to be done through game. Must be in a team to win. Max/Min team size of 2. I'll periodically check to see of this rule is being followed. If I find teams bigger than that or someone mails me, I'll give a warning the first time and ban those with more than 2 allies the second time. The rest of the people will win by default or if there is more than 3 people left, we'll play on. To help with this I'll need all of your race passwords so please use different ones.

You may have as many NEUTRAL friends as you want/can, but you can have only 1 ally at a time.

Turns will be generated a maximum delay of 24 hours, or when all the turns are in, I will though only gen from Mondays to fridays. THIS WILL NOT BE CHANGED!!

You need to be ranked to enter this game. If I see a lot of beginners, I'll host 2, one for beginners/low intermediates
and one for intermediate and up.

Also, anybody who played in FAF I will be MORE than welcome in II or III

Players

- steve1*+ (IL)
- Dyrham*+ (IL)
- platon79*+ (IL)
- ccmaster*+ (IL)
- EDog*+ (IL)
- Kaly*+ (BA)

Names with a * has sent there race files & Passwords.
Names with a + has sent me thier rankings or I found it on my own Wink

E-mail them to strydomi at iafrica dot com

Player positions: Normal

The game can set players to close, moderate, farther and distant. I'd strongly recommend farther, because with moderate (normal?) the game doesn't distribute players evenly. IIRC that has been mentioned here on AH forum, but I can not find the topic.

Well, that was a problem with FAF I, that most players was clumped at the top of the universe. The player lucky enough to start the most south had unlimited expansion room, the others not. I recommend setting it to distant or something. Smile

If I understand this correctly that means no solo victory? Strange ... (just wondering)

*Rare Case*: You may however e-mail me and say that on Turn X you want to put player X as your second ally to sneak a warfleet past his minefields (so they don't sweep it). Or if you've got another VALID reason to do so.


You can do that with giving that fleet the correct battle orders, no need to change the entire relation with that race (and a bad idea).

Oh, I don't mind (and you're the host), I prefer team games above solo games, just found it strange no solo victory allowed. Grin

Indeed Rolling Eyes

ok, I've got 6 players "ready to rumble" Wink.

only one problem, 4 intermediates and 2 beginners. The game discription says that you need to be in a team to win so I guess as long as an intermediate allies with a beginner he could help out?

I'll need an ok from the two beginners to begin the game or I'll wait for 2 more intermediates.

ok, EDog has also joined our little party (Probably coz it's the nearest thing to a deul Wink )

So the pioners: Just be nice to the first other player you meet and he *might* just not kill you Wink

Remember guys, no pregame diplo and you don't HAVE to ally with the first guy you meet.

A mod can lock this thing up so I can send the files to Ron. Anybody who is still interested, go to Fast and Furious III
