In All

[Atrocities]

I have a huge goal when I play that often takes about 2,000 turns or so to do. I tend to play my games until they are done DONE.

By done I mean, games with up to 255 systems using FQM Deluxe set to Warp Point Medium, Dense Midlife galaxies with Warp Points located any where.

I play until the following goals are met;

1. All enemies have been crushed beneith my boots.
2. All asteroids have been converted to planets
3. All planets have been colonized
4. All nebula, black holes, organic infestations, and stellar events have been destroyed thus leaving empty systems.
5. Created a star in all empty systems
6. Built Ring Worlds and Sphere Worlds around EVERY star in every system. (Ring Worlds for habitted systems, sphere worlds for systems with just stars.)
7. I have reached Max population on all worlds
8. All worlds have reached optimal climate and value
9. All worlds have Troops, Mines, Fighters, and Weapon Platforms.
10. All mining facilities have been upgraded to Monoliths.
11. All Research is completed and all research faclities have been converted to other facilities.
12. I have reached the 20,000 ship limit, all Baseships.

I often organize my warp points into a logical pattern as well, but its not a game goal.
