TIC TAC TOE

Game summary: The map is divided into 9 squares (3x3). To capture a square you must hold the planet which is closest to the center of a square. To win the game capture 3 squares in a row. A victory condition check will be made once every ten years (this gives the possibility for more than one race to achieve the victory conditions)

Victory Conditions:

As stated above the map will be divided into 9 equal squares (3x3). To capture a square a player must have a star base (any type) in orbit at the planet that is closest to the center of the square. Capture three squares in a row (any direction) to win the game. To allow for the possibility of more than one player winning the victory condition check will take place once every 10 years. If, in a year ending with a zero, a player holds three squares in a row he/she can declare victory (verified by providing his turn file (and password) to the other players). Theoretically up to three players could declare victory at the same time (hopefully this will set up some interesting diplomatic possibilities) .

When do you want racefiles???



I've heard others have already sent them in, and I was just here waiting for confirmation that the game is going to continue, and that there were no problems with the HW moving procedures...

Sorry for the delay in answering - but I have been out of town.

Once I have enough players who are interested in playing I will put out a final call for race files. You can of course submit your race prior to that. I will hold a spot for you.

If there is a sufficient player density I believe that a distant start should provide a fairly even distribution of HWs. Considering that the VCs require a span of control of at least 800lys (in a med univ) I don't think that any HW movement would be necessary. However, I will poll the players before the game starts prior to making a final decision. If there is someone who would be interested in providing a remapping service please let me know.

Thanks,
Ozone
