This game is intended to be a entry level game. To give some guidance I would say fewer than 10 MP games is a good cutoff point. I don't mind experts but keep in mind that this has assimilation mod and I'd hate for the noobies to be rolled over by turn 20.
Players 10, Hosted on Llamaserver
Map: Cradle of Dominion
CBM 1.94
Assimilation 1.1 (needs patching for EA but otherwise fine)
