Is anyone actually playing this vs actual people?

You can process the turn with out a players file, but the AI tends to make a mess of the ship design sets, but that isn't a biggy.

As for finding games, if you over to host a game you will have people beating down your door. I offered to host3 and am still getting emails from people wanting to join.

the only hassle is email tends to less than reliable, but if the gamemaster Posts the zip file on a website or in a yahooclub it should take away that problem.

I have been thinking about running a game, where i don't play, just tweak the AI's once in a while. I found you get nicer games when i run Ai vs Human team play than cut throat, you will also have less drop out.

My biggest grip is that some hosts don't always include all the files for the game, the txt files are needed to check events and combat etc.

If the game is not fast and furious enough for you, join more than one.
