Greetings Hunam! How do you wish to torture me today?
You can't help but love the wacky races of the Star Control universe, so here's your chance to play as one of them in an SE4 game!
This game is no longer finite resources, as that setting doesn't seem to be very popular.
As would be usual with my games were I to host more of them, just about any game setting is open to change should a majority of players agree on a decision!
Roleplaying is encouraged in this game, it's half the fun of multiplayer SE4!
Note that this is a zero racial points game - it's more interesting when you have to sacrifice something to get that Organic Manipulation trait. Min/maxing is allowed only if it makes sense for your race (e.g. -50 Cunning is OK for Spathi but probably not for Melnorme!)
And it goes without saying that everyone has to pick a Star Control race for this game
Not that you have to know everything there is to know about the Star Control universe - hey, I just found The Ur-Quan Masters (sc2.sourceforge.net) recently and I've only met about a half a dozen races!

Using latest Version of FQM Gold, whatever that is
Note: If anyone wants to use a mod, feel free to ask - I'm kind of partial to Devnull at the moment, though the latest Version doesn't seem to be installed on PBW with SE4 1.84 at the moment... how DO they keep all those installations up anyway, must be gigabytes! (Then again they don't really have much use for the graphics files...)
