I can't wait, though I STILL think I screwed myself over in empire creation. Ah... we'll see!

and all but one of them was made with the right number of points too! thats pretty darn good! if we dont get a new emp in for the person in question by friday afternoon, we will go ahead and launch with 19. never fear, if you did not get an email from me, its not you.

I am going to setup a thread in the game forum for people to link to whatever shipsets they are using, since it seems like half or more of our people are using custom shipsets yet have not provided a link to one. what this means is that they will look different to each person on every turn, making ship recognition and diplomacy a real pain. I would HATE to think that people did this on purpose. and to the people who are just using the standard races from the game and have no idea what im talking about, dont wory, this does not apply to your empires.

but yes, this should be very interesting. I too think that i could have benefited from some different choices at race creation, the more I think about it, the more I think that Ice would have been the way to go.

Ok. Please bare in mind as you read this that I have no clue what I'm doing. When it comes to PBW, that is.

So, what all, exactly, do I need to/should do to play this game. I have to download all the custom shipsets. Ok, where do I put them?

How do I start up my turn in SE4? Just copy the game turn from my email to my saved game folder, and open it that way? How do I send my turn, as above in reverse order?

Is there anything else I need to know about?

Sorry for my computer illiteracy.
