Multiplayer RP Scenerio (long)

Tesco,

I think that the Rim was originally separate, but was combined with the Core (or 'rump' if you prefer) due to lack of players. Maybe Phoenix will reconsider this point since we've had a surge of interest.

Phoenix,

I guess you've finished with the map, but I still have the complete Starfire map if you're interested. It's on an un-integrated hard drive so it might have to wait until the weekend though. Perhaps you could use it for any future games? Also, if its not too late, I think I'd like the Amon'krie (green fleet I think) for the OADC.

"I guess you've finished with the map, but I still have the complete Starfire map if you're interested."

In SE4 format? I have a map of the regions in question, but it's system names and relations only. No data on what's IN the system, and frankly the map editor is too much of a pain to build more than a few systems by hand. Hell, I'm not even doing most of the warp points that way! I'm just using my GM race to open/close warp points where needed.

I'll use the Amon'Krie for the birds, then.

Yes, the Rim was combined with the core. If someone wants them, I'll see if I can work them into things.

I was just wondering since i am reading the books now. I am still in the first one. I am enjoying it. Only humans so far and 2 mentions of the orions and a couple of passing comments on the 3rd interstellar war.

*sigh* I'm sorry guys. This just isn't going to work.. I royally underestimated just how difficult this is.

Playing every race's turn is bad enough, but I'm looking at three or four HUNDRED turns here. Restarting every 5 turns or so because SE4 doesn't like being opened at shut repeatedly on my system.

I tried to speed it up by increasing production, reproduction, engine speed, etc.. but I keep running into Range Check errors and having to turn the avantage down. Still looking at way too much time; SEV would be out by the time I got this finished.

All talk and no walk I guess

Once again, I'm sorry.
