Re: RTH has filled all slots; discuss the game here!
I have. I have several Sphere components in buildqueue at this very moment. They will be my greatest statues ever. Imagine it: Huge Face of Karibu closing around a star  You are all welcome to come and see them... under my governance

Re: RTH has filled all slots; discuss the game here!
Have about 10 ringworlds under construction, but they are still a long way from finished.
I don’t waste my resources on building sphereworlds. There is no way this game will go on long enough to pay back the extra investment. According to my calculations that would take 150 + turns after the (possible) completion of the ringworld.
And the spheres are ugly too. Who wants a planet that looks like a moose’s *** clotting up the system?

Re: RTH has filled all slots; discuss the game here!
Question: Is it legal to have a system not connected to the rest of your empire, so long as it's possible to do so without scrapping a system shield?

That is one method I never thought up when thinking of being a turtle. I would venture to say that no this is not legal. Why? Because you could do this and have that as your minimum single system that can be accessed by other players while the rest are blocked off.
But on the other hand, well, I did have a other hand. I forgot it for now, give me some time and I will post it.

Re: RTH has filled all slots; discuss the game here!
i think it would be legal until it was your only system... then you would have to open it up..

I mean setup so that all systems could be accessed by another player one way or another, but they would have to open at least two warp points to do it.
