Default Re: game idea: junkyard wars

This game is now accepting players. please go to seiv.pbw.cc to join. I added trading, but put a victory condition on that the first one to discover 85% of the techs wins. should make trading very interesting. settings follow:


Status: Game open to new players

Game description
Your race has been ripped from its home and deposited into the Junkyard Quadrant by the great god known as PBW. At the same time, all the great thinkers of your species were left behind. Your race will henceforth be completely incapable of research. Completely! That means none at all! Ever! Not even a little! None!

As fortune would have it, this quadrant is ripe with ruined civilizations. all you have to do, is colonize a planet with ruins, and take the tech you find. Your prophets have forewarned you that you will be competing against other races for these ruins, and they might not be friendly.

**SPECIAL RULES (PAY ATTENTION)**
NO RESEARCH
NO INTEL PROJECTS
you get 0 (ZERO) racial points. why? 'cause you will get plenty of points back once you take your research and cunning down to -50, since you wont be using them. (thought id point that out since a few people in the Furball game didnt quite piece it together)

Check out the special rules at the bottom. Game to start on 2001.07.20 (Friday) or when full. Special Thanks to all the guys on the Shrapnel Games message board who chimed in with lots of good ideas.
