Ok, a stupid question: which mods?

that sounds quite different SJ. You may have sold me on Carrier Battles.

There are currently two open spots left by Axel on PBW.
Carrier Battles #8, which currently has a big galaxy-wide war going on. Instant action, plus allies that will help you get a hang of the strategies and tactics being employed.

Carrier Battles Deluxe #2b is also open but since I'm not in it I don't know as much about what is going on. Almost certainly it will have a more stable political situation

You will probably want to read up on the tutorial page I have:

The tutorial is too much to take in all at once, so I made it available off-line. I'll return to it later, thanks.

Okay, SJ. I downloaded Carrier Battles Mod version 1.4a, only to learn that I still need the image mod. This is a sizable file, and I still have that same slow connection. I went searching for a torrent file, but got no results. Any chance you could make one?

I usually only play a couple of mods, and since I don't do PBW, I have more time to play on the mods. The ones I play most of the time are teh STM, the TDM and Proportions. Not that I don't dislike the others, I just don't have the time to try out all of the mods that are out there. When a new mod does come out, i might give it a try, but I usually go back to whatever mod I happen to be playing at the time.

From the sounds of your list, you'll really like CB1.5+, with Rollo AIs.

They don't cheat, but on "no bonus", they pose a serious challenge to even me... and if you ever dare try Low Bonus, they'll steamroll your navy and capture your homeworld with troops.

What is STM?
