I think the game will be set for "only can colonize home planet type". But planet utilization up to value improvement plants would be a nice find...

Assume you have a 1kg squirrel
E=mc^2
E=1kg(3x10^8m/s)^2=9x10^16J
which, if I'm not mistaken, is equivilent to roughly a 50 megaton nuclear bomb.
Fear the squirrel.

It will.

After I thiught about it, I may not be as screwed as I thought. At the beginning, everyone will expand at approximately the same rate (due to having one planet), unless starting position sucks royally. At the end, when the rocks are full, there should still be planets for me to pick up. It's the midgame I'm worried about....

Hi,
I downloaded the mod and applied to join the game. Is there anything else I need to do?

you dont need to download the mod to play. the projected start date is still on for tomorrow, unless we are full now, which i have to go check on.

Okay, I know the mod is only for practice and I have also uploaded my empire by now.
But one question still remains: What about the Empires that use non-standard shipsets? There is three of them (Dragon Hegemony, Yanerian and Galctic Empire). Do I have to download them and put them in my Pictures/Races folder?

Sorry to ask such basic questions, but PBW is new to me.

Thanks,
Rollo
