New PBW Game: Deep Oceans of Europa

[geoschmo]

I was just trying to help the guy avoid a potential problem down the road, and instead ended up causing a problem now. No good deed goes unpunished.

I couldn't quite understand that rule either (Didn't even consider it to be a joke, understood the "evil axis" reference but thought it meant something for the game.... (European , 35 years old).
As game host I can vouch that rules do get debated, even the "obvious" ones. And a "joke" rule as that will be debated forever. Making it hard being a host!
So try to keep things clear, that's what I've learned so far.


Just some examples....
Don't go form a terrorist network:
-Secret alliances not declared in the treaty grid?
-Large alliances with more than half the players ganging up on one or a few of the others?
-Alliances that share resources and technology freely within ?
-One or two players playing several races in the same game, without the others knowing?
-Starting the game with a pre-arranged alliance?

I didn't get the rule, that's what told me it was a joke. Most of US latest policy is really hilarous over in Europe, so I expected a joke.

*EDIT*
There are, what, ten such threads on this forum alone?


What can I say about a possible rules buried in the joke? If your opponent has researhed star destroying technology, and has spent the 25 turns to build it, and you have no defences in place -- you lost anyway.

Well then Geo, you've done so many good deeds for this community you're bound to wind up in Hades!
