 Another game as the other is filled:

# of players: 4 to 6 (6 preferred)
Skill level: Intermediate and above
Ranked: No
Version: 2.6rc4
Autohost: Yes
Turns generated: Tu/Th/Sa morning. Faster if all players are in. Possible reduction to 2 turns per week if the majority of the players wants to.
If you need a pause, just ask the host - please do so at least two days before the deadline! We will pause from Christmas to New Year's Eve.
Host is playing: No
Universe size: Small Normal, Distant Starting Positions
Starting conditions: ACC BBS
Victory conditions: Last Man standing or consensus
PRTs forbidden: SD (too time consuming)
There will be a penalty of 200 leftover points for CA (set to defenses) plus they may not take TT. JOAT may not take NAS and must put 100 leftover points to defenses.

Special Rules:
- no cheats (except chaff and split-fleet dodge)
- all players have to be set to "enemy"
- no alliances, no tech trading, no NAPs, no coordinated attacks
- no communication at all - ingame or outgame
- Hab must be centered (or immune) in all 3 fields

All in all - a simple, aggressive game.
The game intends to start in about two weeks. Send your race files to andreas(at)studnitz.de.

Thus - no changes compared to the other game.
To Joseph: the hab must be exactly centered. Sorry, no shifting here Smile

Andreas

 Hi!

JOAT may not take NAS and must put 100 leftover points to defenses.

Technically that demands a -200 RW points for JoaT. Isn't that a bit too harsh? I'd demand either -100 or no NAS.

BR, Iztok

Okay, we can lower this a bit:
JOAT may not take NAS and must put 100 leftover points to anything.

I think that's fair then Smile

Hm, still -150, and 50 points to something you don't really want/need ... I'd say more like Iztok, either penalty, not both ... or finish the race without NAS and after checking NAS you can't spend those points anymore ... ? But of course as host you can decide whatever you want (which is about the only pleasure of hosting <g>)

I dunno.
Both CA and JoaT are still effectively crippled.
So playing either as underdog for a change would be quite enticing.

I might introduce this into the duelling championship. Twisted Evil
Only kidding ! Laughing

This is a question for Ptolemy. The last thing I heard was that Gianluca's race file was still missing, but that was a week ago.

The races for this game should be in until tonight. Please tell me if you don't get to it - this is still a game for busy players Smile
Race files from GreyMatter (I need your email adress!), mneisler (same) and hertbert are still missing.

 The game has been genned. I have a problem with Magic's mail address - his spam filters filter out anyone he doesn't know. I am working on it and the files will be sent to Ron latest tomorrow.

 All files for the first game have already been sent to Ron last week - just waiting for him to set the game up.
