Re: PBW League Idea...

I've been thinking about this topic recently, and it seems to me that the best systems for multiplayer games are those that reward winning without overly penalizing the losers (since there are many...

Re: How many players in a game do you prefer?

Re: Greetings! A question about espionage.

Aha! Thanks for the explanations everyone. Now I understand what's been happening in my PBW games.

Re: Greetings! A question about espionage.

I am curious about how intel actually works. My intel projects in PBW are always blocked - probably by a defensive counterintelligence three project. Is there any way around that without having to...

Re: Newbie Question: System Facilities Cumulative?

Yes, it would be nice to see information based on the sector as a whole. It would also be nice if the name of the planet did not overwrite all of the other information, if the actual population of...

Re: Any One Here Still Play

Wow, Capnq, you still have the old Civilization board game! That's probably a relatively valuable collectors item by now. I've heard the new Civilization board game (based on the computer game!) is...

Re: Any One Here Still Play

The only two games I'm playing at the moment are SEIV and Alpha Centauri - both multiplayer (SEIV's PBW is the best multiplayer venue I've ever played - thanks Geoschmo!).

Re: POLL->things we\'d really like in Next Patch (Platinum II)

PaladinX - Thanks for that tip; I didn't know there was a group move order. Will all of your fleets arrive at the same time in simultaneous movement (ie, for PBW games)? I'd hate to have my...
