Nerfed empires

[ZeroAdunn]

Good ideas, especially the ones with the complete AI control except your one fleet.

One game I played I started out with the following restrictions: I could not use warp poitns, research, or build any warships untill an AI empire warped into my system. Wound up being an interesting game, I think I may still have that game on my harddrive.

What about controlling diplomacy - declare on every empire you meet and never have peace - ask them always for gifts and tribute and surrender even when at war - take on 19 computer empires at once. Or all human empires vs computer empires - thats fun.
