Default A new TDM game test.

I have started a new game with all the TDM races + the Vikings (hey, considering the great job that Rollo did, I can't exclude them!).

Game settings:
Large galaxy.
3 Starting planets
No Black Holes
No ruins
Can view all the scores.
All the others options, standard.

Races: Praetorians, Earth Alliance, Rage, Aquilaeian, Orks, Pyrochette, Vaxin, Vikings, Drakol, Piundon, Romulan (me but with all the ministers on).

I'll write some notes, every 30 turns... and if somebody have an special question about one race, only let me know.

---------
TURN 30.
---------

Romulan: War with Orks. T&R with Praetorians. They have started ok, attacking the Orks starting planets but only with frigates. After the turn 25, the Orks sent a counter-attack and damaged badly 2 Romulan starting planets. Anyway, ,they’re in the 7th position.

Praetorian: MA with Orks, Trade with Aquilaeian, T&R with Romulan. They colonize everywhere and everybody love them!

Orks: MA with Praetorian, Trade with Vaxin and Pyrochette, War with Romulan. Maybe because they did contact with the Romulan early in the game, but they have a very low colonization rate (excluding the starting planets, they colonized only 1 planet until the turn 30, and never lost a colony).

Vikings: Trade with Piundon. None with Drakol. War with Rage and Aquilaeian.
They have started in the center of the galaxy... and this was a problem, considering that have some aggresive neighbors.

Earth Alliance: War with Drakol. Trade with Rage. They have finished all the projects. Mephisto, honestly I believe that you sholud reconsider to have more than two research projects in the queue... Anyway, they’re doing a very good job with their fighters.

Vaxin: Trade alliance with the Orks (but they’re Angry!). None with Pyrochette (and they rejected a Vaxin’s treaty proposal). They have not many worlds availables to colonize, and then, believe that will have problems to grow.

Rage: as usual, this guys alway are looking for problems! They’re at war with the Piundon and with the Vikings. Trade Alliance with EA. Have all their planets protected with a lot of Weapon Platforms.

Aquilaeian: They’re at War with the Vikings, but they’re far away one of each other... then, I believe that will sign a peace treaty at some moment. Trade alliance with Praetorians.

Pyrochette: Trade Alliance with the Orks. None with Vaxin (but believe that the war will come soon...). They have started in the right bottom corner, and then, had not problems to colonize the nearest systems.

Drakol: War with EA. None with Vikings. Their colonization rate looks a bit slow (because they have several breathable planets into their systems without colonize), but also, they have tons and tons of satellites protecting their planets.

Piundon: Trade with Vikings. War with Rage. They are neighbors of the Rage, but they’re doing a good work. They could have problems to find more planets to colonize.

TURN 60.

Romulan: War with Orks. T&R with Pyrochette. Military alliance with Vaxin. Partnership with Praetorians. They have recovered their loses, and are doing a very good work. With a wise politic to keep only one war moving, they are in the 3rd position (well, I’m selecting the type of colony for them! ). I’m looking time in time the words: “All projects completed”

Praetorian: MA with Orks. Trade with Vaxin and Pyrochette. T&R with Vikings. Partnership with Aquilaeian and Romulan. The peace lovers are now in the first position, and colonizing all the galaxy!! The Romulan have Displeased feelings with them... but all the other race like them!

Orks: MA with Praetorian, T&R Vikings, Earh Alliance, and Drakol. Partnership with Vaxin and at War with Pyrochette and Romulan. They have colonized more worlds, but still have several colonies inside their systems, without colonize. They will have not problems with Pyrochette, because they’re far away, but they’re having problems fighting against the PPB Romulan’s ships.

Vikings: Trade with Romulan. T&R with Praetorian, Orks, Vaxin, Drakols. Military with Earth Alliance and Piundon. At war with War with Rage and Aquilaeian. This guys knows everybody except the Pyrochette! They’re not having prolems to keep the Rage and Aquilaeian out of their systems, but in the other hand, they did not damage to them. Anyway, is really hard try to destroy a Viking ship!

Earth Alliance: War with Drakol and Piundon. Trade with Rage and Vaxin. T&R with Orks and Military with Vikings. They have problems to destroy the very protected Drakol’s planets, but are expanding their empire quite well.

Vaxin: Trade alliance with Praetorian, EA. T&R with Vikings. Military with Romulan. Partnership with the Orks (and now they’re Warm). None with Pyrochette (but had battles against them and their mood is Murderous). War with Drakols. Still they have problems to expand.

Rage: War with the Piundon and with the Vikings. Trade Alliance with EA and Drakol. None with Aquilaeian (but they’re Murderous). They’re having problems to decide to send their fleets against the Vikings, or against the Piundon (but this’s hard coded!). Anyway, they lost some colonies with the Piundon, but have colonized some far planets.

Aquilaeian: Still they’re at War with the Vikings. None with Rage and Orks. Partnership with Praetorian. They had not neighbors, but have not good systems around their homeworlds... but thanks their long range colony ships, they have expanded fast.

Pyrochette: Trade Alliance with Praetorian. None with Vaxin (but have a virtual war). T&R with Romulan. They are sending some big fleets into the Orks systems.

Drakol: War with EA and Vaxin. Trade with Piundon and Rage. T&R with Orks and Vikings. They’re having problems to find available planets, but, also they have not colonized some good planets into their systems. Anyway, all their colonies have lots of satellites and fighters protecting them.

Piundon: Military with Vikings. War with Rage and EA. Trade with Drakol. They’re fighting quite well against the Rage, but looks that they’re not colonizing/exploring too much.

Good work MB ,
thanks for including the Vikings as well .
I really like the comments you make about the races, not just posting statistics like me . I will try to do that in my new test game as well, but I am a lazy writer...

MB - I am concerned about the lack of colonization by the Dra'kol and Piundon. Please send the latest save game to ctraber@ngn-tampa.com.

Thanks
