 The idea is to have a galaxy that has already HAD it's day of colonization and perhaps even terraforming and war mongering. And the game starts effectively in the second galactic age.

Many worlds will be have infrastructure in advance, some with minerals lying on the surface.

The idea is to take one host race and seed the stars with both factories/mines as well as some special ships. When a player comes across a precursor fleet they send a transmission to the precursor ship (the player) and claim the ship, then the precursor ship changes sides to the owner. Everyone's allied with the precursor race and they are also allied. THis gives the effect of abandoned ships just drifting out in space.

Using my race switcher, the host race will have technology from several PRT's. Derilict fleets will have anything from minerals to warfleets in them. The best prizes will be cloaked to prevent them from being found too early. The precursors will also have MT tech on some of their ships.

The host can either use a race with 0 to 3 immunities depending on whether people want to deal with terraforming preterraformed planets or not.

Beyond an inital setup stage everything will play out like any other game. The host might even leave a small IT gate network up. Or the host might also leave SD mine fields exploding or otherwise scattered about. The mine layers will be cloaked and spawn a field between two or more ships to prevent detection.

The in a nutshell the idea is to make it look like there was once an empire that dominated the galaxy but is now all but gone. And for all I care the existing races are just split off factions of the ancient race. I mean the multi PRT host race will have something from every PRT that has something to give.

Rule 1: "Pillage, THEN burn!"
