And i also vote for Rule 10 of Steerpike .
The great Spiderlord must be kept alive

Now, now! [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/PointUp.gif[/img] While I would have no philosophical objections to an international compact prohibiting all wars of aggression against me and my minions, it reminds me a little too much of playing backyard baseball in my childhood. My buddies allowed me 5 strikes because I was so freakin' bad. (Of course, the REAL problem was that I was not wearing glasses yet, and therefore, I couldn't see the damn ball... or at least that's what I tell myself... over and over. But, that's a lawyer's best RPG skill... "shifting the blame".) [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Cake.gif[/img]

I would be interested by the sort of game you suggest Panther, and I agree to your six points. If needed, I can host it in PBEM, but I would be a player as well (so no things like manual placement).

Steerpike, there is a third option with scores: only make them available every X turns or so (there are other possibilities, but only with a host not playing in the game). It would require turning off the scores in the game, and creating a score html file when running some of the turns. The information provided by this file is in hard figures however (as in: Abysia, 19387 research).

I'd be interested in joining the new slugfest. In case we're choosing nations, I'd call dibs as Machaka. (Maybe it is time to dust off Machaka, practice in SP, and then beat you all with the REAL spider lord.)

Maybe we could get a small random map from Gandalf.

Alneyan,

Do you know if two people can play from different computers with the same CD key for PBEM? I sure would like to play an MP game with my son, especially since I moved out after my separation from his mother and do not live with him anymore.

I think playing on two different computers would trigger the cheat detection (playing several nations on the same computer would be fine, however).

If you want, I can set up a quick test game to see if it would work. Drop me a mail at alneyan[AT]fastmail[DOT]co.uk if you want, and I will send a game turn to the two of you.
