Any good PBW games??

[kerensky]

Ok so I going to try playing a pbw game now that I have space empires and the internet on teh same computer. Are there any new games or games that I could get into that would be good for someone new to this to try? I have never played against human players before so this should be interesting...

Well, I suppose the Carrier Battles game is out of the question then

I suggest browsing through the open games, and joining a couple as a replacement player.
No pressure, and you start with a pre-built empire.

A good way to get your feet wet.

do the "all tech" one - we're starting on Oct 31

I find it easier to build my own empire - I know what I'm doing, and I know where things are.

So does that mean that you start with everything researched?

[inigma]

yeah, go read about the "all tech" game description when you find the game in the list.

PBW games are awsome, my only advise is to keep the number of players in the game low, no more than six or seven... many will drop out as the game goes on.

Oh ya, AVOID using intel in the game.... bad idea.
