Yummm, fresh blood!
Welcome!

After you've done over hundred of testbeds, the growing part of the game isn't anymore the real fun, y'know.

Ummm, I _strongly_ suggest you to do some serious testbedding first, just to get the grasp of the game progress and mechanics behind it. If you're not realy new, the standard 100 ARM BBs test would be just appropriate. But if you are, then reading "Tutorial - How to get over 25k resources by 2450 (BEGINNER)" in "Stars! - Must Know" section is simply a must-read (and do ) for you.

No offense, but IMO you are not. Blitz is played by forced-gens, starting with 4 game years per turn. For a new player is that another big problem he neds to solve, besides the low knowledge of game mechanics.
However you can play multiple turns per day in a "private" PBEM duel, where one player is the host. The speed depends just from how fast both players submit their turns, and how often the host checks his e-mail.
BR, Iztok
