Default Replacement needed for Highliner Mod game.

GW has had to leave the game for RL reasons. We need someone to take over his empire. If you are not familiar with the Highliner Mod, here is a description;

A mod where only *very* large starships are capable of interstellar travel. These "highliners" carry the smaller intrasystem ships, or "riders", that do the dirty work of fighting, prospecting, et cetera.

The game is still in the relatively early stages and I do not know what status GW's empire is in. I might also state that, so far, this game has been quite fun and very interesting, considering everyone is restricted to basically huge carriers and larger fighters. So if you want to have some fun with a different flavor of SE IV, come sign up for this one.

Default Re: Replacement needed for Highliner Mod game.

The usual, silly questions: is it a small game? (No more than a few minutes per turn) If so, is it likely to stay a small game, or are the "way too big Empires" an eventuality?

I may be interested in taking over ( although I should definitively not do so), but can only consider taking small Empires.

Thanks,
Alneyan

There are 5 empires in a small galaxy. I spend about a half hour per turn currently. Highliners take a long time to build, so most people are playing cautiously right now so as not to lose something that takes 12 turns to build. Hope this answers your question.

I have applied to take over, but I will have to give a good look at the game; it should be all right though.

The password is invalid, and I do not know if GW is still around. If not, please reset the password instead, since I would rather not delay the game too much for this first turn.
