Most race files are in (see above list, first post). Some need a bit finetuning but overall we are on track. It looks like a good mix: 4 ILs, 1 BA, 4 beginners.
What I noticed (once again) when trying to analyze and to comment the submitted race designs: It's a hellish steep penalty I have given the lower intermediates. With JoaT and SD banned (but only for IL) and for every other PRT forced to 100-150 leftover race-pts they really go handicapped into the game.
The good thing: the game will be exciting and a true challenge to win against beginners in this Fledgling Admirals setting. And don't feel embarrassed if you get creamed by a beginner. If they read up, they can get quite good players very fast. I lost myself vs one of the FA-beginners shortly afterwards in a duel (and yes, I felt embarrassed *grin).
A bit late but this will surely help the beginners to understand the gibberish we are talking here in the forum and I in my emails:
* Stars Abbreviations
In case several more players show up and want to play, we could perhaps ask neilhoward to host another game:
* New Game inquiry for beginner level experience players
Sadly this very interesting approach has gone a bit unnoticed, perhaps because it was posted as an inquiry in the bar instead of as a proper setup in the new game announcement section.
