Yes, TDM as a base is fine. That way players that don't want to mess with the AI will still have something decent.

Surely there are some new players interested in this game! Come, join in!

You don't even have to have a whole lot of time free to play.
I played at least half of the first 20 turns, but my AI race has been on its own for over 70 turns in a row. (My home network went down this week.)They're still doing very well, with the biggest population in the galaxy, despite being low tech (8th of 8) and compact (6th of 8 in systems controlled).

Yeah, you just lost one fleet though.

EDIT: SJ, you are looking at the wrong stats. You are #3 in tech and number 1 in total number of systems. You were looking at CapnQ's stats.

Yeah, my race being behind everybody else in tech is fairly common, even in my solo games. My Ukra-Tal drew a rather isolated starting position; we're past turn 100 now, and I've still only encountered two other empires.

Hey! you're right!

The order switching between the two tables must have confused me.
Ukra-Tal, CueCappa... oopsie.

I guess I'm doing even better than I first thought.

Although realistically, I can hardy claim the glory.

You know, this game really makes me wish SE4 had some kind of text log that would record everything that happened in the game from turn to turn. When you miss ten turns or so in a row it would be nice if you could go back and get an idea of what happened without having to go through all the turns one at a time.

You go to bed with a fleet, and wake up without it... where did it go?
