Tesco, I can't remember, were those maps generated with SE (standard) or with the TDM Mod?

TDM will generate the same maps that standard SE does as it only changes the AI. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

The difference in them is planet/atmosphere generation. And the number of moons (etc.) FQM generates. I just wondered if Tesco used FQM to generate the maps and that people who might not be familiar with them might want to take a hard look before deciding on their empire setup.

Of course, if the Tesco Maps were generated with standard SE Gold...I'll have to do my best impersonation of Gilda Radner saying, "Never mind!". http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

OK Asmala, could you set me and Primitive up with a new game based on one of Tesco's maps. Otherwise, standard settings.

That OK with you, Primitive?

Slynky -vs- Kazarp 2401.1

I just sent a colony ship to colonize a planet in a nearby system. Noticed when I clicked on it that there was writing. So, I read it (duh!)

Seems like the game was generated with ruins in it. So, I looked around at all the planets (I can colonize) in systems where I am colonizing and noticed another one.

Now, you and I both know lots of times you get those "massive" things that aren't worth anything in this game. On the other hand, sometimes you get other colonizing techs and other stuff that could make a difference in the game, like shields and weapons.

So, I would suggest we keep the same empires/PBW game and get Asmala to generate another game for us. I'd hate to add any more luck to the game than there already is.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yeah, Geo, just shows ya what happens when you try to do a good deed... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif . They have a saying about that, I beleive.

I used to do it all the time and couldn't figure out why. Then I realized I was generating a map (and deciding it looked really interesting) and THEN as I worked my way down, turned off Ruins. (after the map had been generated).

Ragnarok's "Baron Chasers! Federation" vs. Baron Grazic's "EEEvil EEEmpire"

2405.1 - Nothing exciting has really happened the Last few turns. I am still in first place and have been for along time now. But as I've said many times before that never means anything. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon6.gif Our empires continue to grow in many different ways. In one system that Baron and I share he has a fleet of 9 ships building at the warp point that I imagine is mined to the teeth and he is colonizing some planets in that system as well. Other then that it has been slow goings and I'm sure battles will begin to flare in the next few turns. Who will take the risk to start off we have yet to see. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
