Re: PBW \"newbie game\"
Just took a look, it appears I can't open up the game I created and edit it, I'd have to re-create it with the same settings except for the unit/ship limit. No problem.
If I have to do that anyway, are there any other changes desired? I'm in doubt about score display, either allied or all. "All" has it's pro's and con's, but with intel turned off maybe that would compensate a bit.
Bear in mind that on this map you are less likely to be dealing with 5 neighbors at the same time (like we did in the Letharg game, Shoujo), so comm channels become more valuable as trade items. Being centrally located will give you the benefit of multiple trade treaties to grow quickly, but will make you a target later on as people have to pass through you to get to the other side of the galaxy.
I am using a map that I once generated in the random generator and liked so much that I saved it. Yes, that gives me the advantage of knowing the map beforehand, but I'm ancient race anyway so I don't think it matters.
