very interesting. Monsters vs. GP sounds fun . I would very much like to check that out. Can you post the files? It never ocurred to me that planet cloaks work on weapon platforms.

Erg. My hacks are quite ugly. Please give me a couple days to tidy it up and I will send it to you.

You realize that this stuff is quite unbalanced. I can really only see 3 types of gameplay/storytelling possible:

• Single Play: Terra Uber Alles - Computer takes one super race, human takes the other. Duke it out in the midst of a galaxy of midgets.
• Multi Play: Hang together - AI takes Monsters. Bunch-o-humans take normal races. Work together or die.
• Multi Play: Eddore vs Arista - AI takes Monsters. Bunch-O-humans take normal races. Moderator takes Galactic Patrol. Moderator acts as a traditional GM. Intervenes with ships/resources as needed to help game play/story-telling.

Option 2 (Hang together) is very hard to balance, since it depends on the cleverness and co-operation of a number of humans.
