My favorite is MT eBay. It would be interesting, and I think people enjoyed "Bidding for techs" and "Bidding for PRTs".

Seems to be majority.

Unusual choices - way too complicated.

Not more complicated, actually less complicated, than Primitive restrictions.

Just have all races start at 200 plus standard handicaps (or something like that) and subtract points from this for choosing bad traits (i.e. make BET worth more, MA costs less, etc.).

I thought about PRTs having more individuality. By just penalizing and giving bonuses, their econs are just adjusted, e.g. WM and SS will still have a mid game advantage, and have to play accordingly. That can be only adjusted if Nub is banned. If Nub is banned, firepower compared to armor would be even more unfavourable, therefore high end weapons banned.
Droppable is the try to boost PP, because limiting battle orders and bombs are a bit more complicated, but no nubs, no we>=21, except we22 torp and no prop23 engine is not complicated and is enough to do a lot of balance shifts.

No need to penalize very low-growth HE - they have no chance anyways! Laughing

If a 4% HE gets told he needs to have 500 points leftover, he just goes to fac cost 6, mine cost 3 and 4 cheap techs instead of 5 - this will barely affect its performance. Therefore extra penalties.

Monster rumble - who wants to play with all TT CA's? Rolling Eyes

I don't know, therefore i asked. Also it would be interesting if other PRTs would be present. It would be a game for those who are disappointed to often by weakness of neighbours.

Poodle Playground - who wants to play with all 4% HE's (or maybe 6% AR's)? Note 5% HE can get 25k pretty consistently.
The testbed as the game would be no accbbs, therefore a 5% AR could at most get 12k resources, 103.75(max resources of 25000 with 1/2500,15/x/25)*1.1**50=12179.

And a -f design could also fall short of 10k without accbbs. Also a slow growing HP and some non immune AR designs would qualify.

Dark Menace - elaborate on significance of AI please?

Expert Robotoid AI gets 15 k in 2450. Primitive Races get 1k in 2450. So a lone player will have a hard time, but 8 cooperating should be able to finish him.
But while finishing the AI everyone has to see, that he is in a good position(getting nice fac rich greens from AI, getting tech from dropping and battles) to win afterwards. And at the same time everybody has to take care, that their distrust and maneveuring does not weaken the fight against the AI so much, that it turns into 4 teams of 2 k resources and a AI with 15 k.

Also victory condition states, that last surviving human wins.
You know, you do not have to be faster than the wolves - you just have to be faster than the guy next to you(and a stick at the right time can help that).
