Have they changed with the patch? I thought AC III's converted in 20 turns....

As to the "same planet and atmosphere type, I guess I'll have to load the patch and try it. The way I currently play (large galaxy, low tech, low setup points), it takes me 250 - 400 turns for a game; I'm not so sure I'd like 'em any longer. However, it is cool, that players have the option.

Personally, I think a scenario editor would be a great addition to the game (of course this has been said many times by others). I like the other threads about how players are taking the "neutral challange" (becoming like a neutral empire), and I've played games where I've built a coupla' ringworlds and gave everything else to the AI's (ships, planets, etc) - that is a cool challenge. The problem is that I have to go very far into the game to build my scenario. I would love to be able to setup the game to my desired scenario. For instance, I'd like to be able to be put on a Sphereworld as a Homeworld and give the AI massive bonuses (ships, points, planets, techs, etc.) and be instantly at war at game start.

Anyone heard any word on a scenario editor (or can you point me to other threads??)
