Got some time right now, but also have a big team game that promises to be a BIG time-sucker on the horizon. Therefore, I figure I can spare the effort to get a new game started as a non-playing/observer host.
Therefore a poll. Results not guaranteed to be my decision, but I will take it as a heavy recommendation indicating some interest from the player community.
Quick Summary of what the various game names are. Full details will be in the game advertisement when it comes out:
CHoS V - 5th game in the "Children's Hour of Science" series.
Eight races plus a central observer in a medium sparse. Generally used for beginners or low intermediates to get their feet wet. Observer/host will answer questions of a general nature, but avoids giving specific tactical advice. The previous four games tended to run in pairs since I got a good response and then attempted to pack what seemed to be the better players together.
=====
RWIAB III - 3rd series of "Rabid Weasel In A Box".
Eight or nine races in a small packed. All races must be AR, or use factory settings where factories cost 25 resources to build (-f races essentially). I would consider this an intermediate game. Players from RWIAB IIa, IIb, and IIc are about - plus there are reviews viewable in the game forums.
=====
Transformers - "new" series
Eight or nine races in a medium normal. Intermediate game.
Two special rules:
1. No DN, BB, B-52, or Nubian hulls can be used.
2. Nothing over Tech level 20 can be put on a hull.
One "bonus":
All players will receive 5 special "Transformer" ships at the start of the game. These will be an ultra-miner hull fully loaded with Orbital Adjustor modules.

Qbert
Eight or nine races in a medium sparse. Going to remap the galaxy into a series of squares just to toss a different star geometry into play. Vanilla other than that.
