  • This universe will house seven players.

I'm already in, but I figured I should put it here so people know the game is active Wink

Look forward to playing with you guys... probably shouldn't reveal this, but this will be my first multiplayer Stars game.

To Play or not to play!!! Thats the question

Already in a game, so i am afraid i will drown in MM.

Will you be having more than 7 players?
What are your intentions/ideas to stick to 7 players?

Hi All,

This scenario is fairly simple, so I am willing to run multiple instances if there is sufficient demand.

You will note that there is no mention of a playing host...
that is because there isn't Smile

donjon
