Ya, the limits on both can be turned up to 20,000. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

Oh BTW, if you do set up a game using the Proportions warp-point-rich system types, I recommend trying turning off the "all systems connected" setting, because you still get all systems connected, but some interesting configurations.

Sounds good to me, but we might want to play in a smaller quandrant unless we get some more people. Large might be a bit big for only 5 people.


Oh, and I assume it's infinite resources? (although finite is ok with me, too)

Evil PvK,

You are mean.

Now I realize why 5.000 units is not much for this mod. A few turns building soldiers (my homeworld can build 237 per turn, and I'm already getting close to 1.000 units.

That's only for units in SPACE, IIRC is doesn't apply to units in cargo- weapons platforms, troops, stored sats/drones/fighters.

Thanks, I forgot about that.

Count me in, if you want. I have not tried proportions mod so far, sorry PvK , so many great things on the CD, so much to do, but I will take a look into it before you start the game. From what I have read so far, I guess this will become a cool challenge.

Yes, limit is on number of units in space. Troops are unlimited, even on transports. Massive numbers of ships or units in space aren't necessarily a particular feature of Proportions, as far as I know. I just think the higher the theoretical limit, the better. I know it's pretty easy to hit 1,000 units in space even in a small normal game.

There are two kinds of black holes in Proportions - one is stronger than the other. The other one is like before. But ya, I try to introduce some evil from time to time. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Infinite resources, yes.

We can do a smaller quadrant - that's probably a good idea for increased interaction. Maybe Small, or Medium if we get 8 players.
