Default Re: Babylon 5 Mod

I remember seeing slow development in B5 Mod before Gold came out... maybe it was a beta tester that saw Proportions during the Gold beta and asked you about it?

I did read what you said, and it does not affect my statements about PBW usage at all. LAN Groups are not akin to PBW in any possible way. I am not talking about isolated LAN Groups, but about PBW play. In PBW, you rarely get more than a turn per day. Maybe two or three in the early game, if you are lucky. Proportions, AIC, B5, etc. take far longer to play to completion than stock SE4. 600 turns is obviously a hyperbole. With the beta test PBW game we did of B5 Mod, it stopped around turn 140, when RCEs killed it. There was very little progress towards reaching the end game stages. It could easily have gone on for another 2 years before it was over.
