For Sale: Slightly Used Empire

[Deathstalker]

Yep, thats right, a bargin. Geo needs to move on from the 'Return to Orion (Sphereworld)' PBW game and we will need a replacement player. (seems his life is quite full and I'm the first to go-'sniff' That and by his perspective this game could 'take awhile').

So post here if you would love to play Geo's empire! Heck you get to interac with the crazy Orks, the Azaroni, the Legion (if I can ever get the AI to stop beating up on me) and lots of other people.

You know you want to

I'll give it a shot. It'll be my first PBW game.

Err... How do I take over for someone?

[Deathstalker]

I'll let Geo know so he can withdraw and then just click 'Join Game' (or Take Over Empire). The game is using se4 Gold, latest patch (1.78) and latest TDM-Modpack (3.20). You will also need to have the shipsets of the people playing (if they are not already in se4 or the modpack) or you will see a random shipset for that player each turn.

I tried to click on the "take over empire" button by the empty slot and got an error. He's the text displayed in the error:

Try it again Mylon. And email me if it still doesn't work.

Another thing to try when you get an error message on PBW is to check it with the other UI. Often things that produce an error on the graphic UI work on the old text UI, and vice versa.

Once in a while, whatever you tried to do actually worked, but PBW threw an error when it tried to update the page to reflect that.

Uhhhhh....did I say crazy? I meant crazy in a good way! Honest!

[Unknown_Enemy]

Heck you get to interac with the crazy Orks

Crazy Orks ?!?!

So. Writing the legion's name on the "To Exterminate" 1389 page book.
