Return to Orion- Sphereworld PBW game.

[Deathstalker]

New game on PBW: Return to Orion (Sphereworld)

"You are Overlord of your domain. The planets populace worship you as a god. Crime has been eliminated, work is plentiful, disease is unheard of and money is no longer needed in your utopia. Suddenly the skys around your planet grow dark, storms light up the sky and the earth trembles. Your people grow afraid and look to you to solve the problem. A screaming like no other fills the planet, seeming to be everywhere at once, it almost makes you believe the tales of the banshee wail of 'Bhritny Spirs' the Death Goddess. Your scientists work feverishly to understand the screaming, if indeed it is a communication from above or below. Then as sudden as it started it stops, the night sky clears and you see strange stars and constellations above you. The universe is no longer a friendly place. Your scientists have your answer.

"I come from Beyond! You have been selected to do battle in this realm with others of your kind. Beings of this small dimension. Survive and wonders of your wildest dreams shall be yours, or fail and your names shall be as dust to the solar winds. Out there also is the planet of the Ancients, a marvellous world of metal and machinery. This may be the key to your victory. Go now, time grows short"

Your people tremble but are stout of heart. This world and its wonders will be yours and your enemies shall be trampled beneath the feet of your armies!

OK this is a basic SE4 Gold 1.67+TDM Modpack 3.11 game. 10 Players plus some modpack AI's of the very annoying kind. There is a SPHEREWORLD out there somewhere, as is a Ringworld hidden as well. The universe is not as you know it, systems may not behave as they usually do. You have been warned. Alliances and roleplay is welcomed, winner shall be determined by the virtue of surviving everyone else. The Sphereworld is not a requirement for winning, just a help/hinderance along the way.

The Sphereworld is ROCK/OXY but the map will be of 'equal' other planets.

If this game is still open by the end of June, I will be interested in joining, as it sounds great. Unfortunately, I will not be in a position to join any games before then. Don't wait on my account, but if you need more players, I will plan on joining then.

[Deathstalker]

At the rate these games fill up it might just be open. Hopefully this will fill up though, looking forward to getting back into PBW again.

bumpy bump. Still open

Very lonely out here, I am willing to start with 6 or 8 players. Is there a problem with the settings?? I could change them to suit players requests. What would it take to make YOU join this game??

What would it take to make YOU join this game??

If you could kill the lecturers, burn down the university, or otherwise free me from the slavery of the upcoming exam!

"If you could kill the lecturers, burn down the university, or otherwise free me from the slavery of the upcoming exam! "

Sorry, nope. Despite the name I am a fairly non-violent kinda guy. (unless you get in the way of the TV when Buffy is on ).

I could however start the game once your exams are finished. Somehow I think there will still be a spot open.

[Alpha Kodiak]

Ok, I am back and I am in!

Game should start when we get a few more players, and I get a new modem....hopefully in a few weeks.
