Speaking of bashes...besides my head on a platter...what's your pleasure in game settings, RexTorres?

Sssh Slynky, that is supposed to be a secret. And some might figure out I am actually working for more than one organization once they are aware I work for Intelligence gathering agencies. No, I didn't give myself away, it was merely... erh... well, a random eventuality.

The fabled Heart of Gold is, in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (Douglas Adams) a device able to generate *very* unlikely events and as such is often called the "improbability drive". This device would be needed to defeat Asmala, therefore creating a surprise victory in the first round. And even this device might not be enough. And yet again I am raving.

Georgig, it seems like we will play together next round. Do you have some preference for the settings? Hopefully my luck will come back in this game.

hopefully not :-P so-called 'standart koth settings'?

It is reverse psychology. Saying it makes it so obviously unbelievable. (or does it?)

Then I won't venture far from the "KOTH Trail":

All KOTH settings except 1 GOOD planet instead of a medium.

True enough Slynky, I had to state I was working for four intelligence agencies so that nobody would believe me. But obviously I had to dispel your own affirmation as this was the expected answer. Erh... well, the basic goal was to puzzle and confuse every potential dangerous spies.

Agreed Georgig, what about a Tesco map? I gather Intelligence is disabled? Apart from that, a single planet start with 20,000 resources is fine for me.
