Here's a suggestion :
A friend of mine runs a small quiet forum dedicated to the discussion of all sorts of games. How about we start our own thread there so we could use it for this game, diplomacy and politics,ingame events and empire Messages could all be discussed and posted there.
Here's the link to the place. All you guys would have to do is register.
Anyway, thought it would be a good idea to have our own space for this kinda stuff and the place is perfect for it.
If you all agree I could go over there and get our thread started.
As for the game I would suggest no tech trading,only one partnership allowed and that the game leader would place us as far apart as possible, especially in a medium sized galaxy.
Thanks again to Arakiel for starting this, really looking forward to it!!
Thanks again to Ar
