Anyone fancy a fast, no diplomacy game?

I'd like to start a new game - A game where this isn't any diplomacy (all players set to enemy, no contact between players allowed, single race victory) etc. This isn't because I'm antisocial, but because I often find that diplomacy takes far more time than playing the actual game!

Also to help with speed, I propose keeping the number of planets down to 20-30 per player to reduce MM. The universe size will depend on the amount of interest generated, but probably small/medium and normal

I intend to play in this game and will host it myself if necessary, I've never hosted a game before, but hey, there is a first for everything!

If enough interest is generated I will have a careful think about the rules and post in 'New game announcements'

Will you fight to the end or surrender when the odds are tilted against you? Rolling Eyes

Because I've seen tides turn when people stick to their guns and fight to the end.

Surrendering and dropping are two different things. I am still current with my turns and the fight goes on...

Besides, how could I announce a surrender if no communication/diplo are allowed Wink

Define surrender.

Very Happy

I was just being evil. Twisted Evil

Although I usually don't, I quit playing in a game last year, late mid-game. The odds were overwhelming. ccmaster and his !@!! -f HE and his ally.
I was pretty much deserted by my ally. No techs, no support. And after getting the brunt of attacks, HW gone, there was a snowball's chance in hell of my -f race winning that game without more help from others.

Yes, Blue

I'm in that place in one game, I'm doing ten minute turns, no more then 30 minutes from download to upload

Just can't walk away Crutches

Edit: I would be willing to play

This is the only type of game I would be able to consider playing due to current circumstances. I would like to play, but that would depend on a number of things. I hope you get it going, I suspect it would fill up quickly. Cool

I'm in - but I'll warn you I've not played against humans yet.

BTW, how often do new games get posted on this forum?

Welcome!

About once a week, perhaps more.

Some of them are geared towards novices or rusty old-tmers, or are Team games suitable for pairing novices with more experienced players.

So many Stars, so few Missiles!

In space no one can hear you scheme! Deal
