Well, I just thought about ways to somehow stress or accentuate the aspects of building and peaceful expansion under almost real conditions. Also, it would eliminate a big part of micromanagement for a long time to avoid that it could take several years of my real life 
It would be impossible for PBW or more than 2 or 3 players anyway, because you somehow need a kind of time lapse function for centuries in a slowed down proportions game.
My first draft setup was even about a solo game without any AI, but then I thought it might be nice to see at least one alien race at the end (SETI), just for the interest in AI development under extreme conditions. |
