I might be interested in joining this game, what are the basic changes made in the data files and to accomplish what?

This isn't a game, per se; it's a new mod, one that's a spinoff form the idea that spawned the "Attack of the Ankle-Biters" thread.

The changes, so far, are mainly to limit ships to the smaller end of the scale, play with engines-per-move a bit (so that some later hulls are SMALLER, but in return inherently FASTER, than their predecessors), and try out osme of the less-radical changes for weapons which were discussed in the Stock Balance thread.

Not all changes to weapons are properly documented in the data files at present (I believe I forgot to STATE that the Graviton Hellbore skips armor, for example), and I am working on a new Beta 3 Version, complete with a readme documenting the changes (at least in summary format); I hope to have that Version ready for release by the end of this weekend.
