Bumpity-bump bump.
Still looking for a few players. I think this will be a fun game, high powered, unique and interesting map, plus the no religious/no intel/no stellar manip settings combined with no fighters/no mines should be interesting...
Game starts around Feb 12th...get in now!
The game is listed under "Zeta 2: The Great Sign" on PBW.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Things you should know up front about this game:
* No fighters or mines (satellites allowed however)
* No Stellar Manipulation
* No ancient race characteristic allowed
* No religious race characteristic allowed.
* No temporal race characteristic allowed.
* No Intelligence. This is a no-intel game.
* Unique map
* Resource heavy
Empires will be created using PvK's Balance Mod using with 2000 point empires. This means they are "stock" empires but with adjusted point costs for the various characteristics that are more balance. As PvK says,
PvK Balance mod changes the point costs for abilities when an empire is created, to be more balanced. It makes no other changes to the basic game.
The Balance Mod can be obtained
here
Since that site is lately experiencing problems,
you can also download it from the SE4 PBW site
here
As a third alternative, email me at
alarikf@hotmail.com and I will send it to you.
NOTE:
I intend to start this game around Feb 12th. The delay is because I want to finish and test the map for balance and I would really like to get 20 players for the game.
Also, I understand that many people might be reluctant to use a mod, even one that makes no changes to the basic game. If interest in this game is too low, I may consider going with the straight stock game. But for balance purposes, Id really rather not.
Lastly, the game has a backstory, but it is irrelevant for gameplay. The
only effect it has is the map.
If there are any questions, feel free to email me at

Thanks,
Alarik
