tesco: realy, why not? not too much difference from the Gold i think.

Settings seem fine for me. especialy i love that "smart" victory way.
3k racial points is fine too, my favorite setting.
Im not too familiar what "medium" tech does give me, i should check it out. anyway, the settings look just great. for me.

Sparhawk and Geoschmo-

I agree, good job on the settings. And thanks for the coordination efforts, geoschmo!

The game concept sounds really fun. That is what is going to make this a good game.

Sure, Gold adds some nice features, but there isn't anything prohibitive about playing with V1.49. Plenty of us are happy with it, and upgrading to any Version always adds new things you would like fixed, and new features you would like to add.
In any matter, SEIV still rocks as a game and I can't believe I'm still playing it regularly...

Yea... Sorry... But I cannot stand 1.49.

There is the problem with the combat and who goes first.
No multi select on the build screen.
Intel bugs
5000 ships and 5000 unit caps are the big ones...

I am just cleaning up my current 1.49 pbem games... and i don't want to go back.

If you get to 8 people and your stuck... I will join..

Forgive. Please.

If most of your are happy with the settings, than its a go!

I'm still waiting for Geoschmo to confirm the starting date

Yes, I agree tesco samoa with in some degree.
In gold you have new and more things to research, beter interface etc., but still its all about gameplay . And in the end the goal/settings/players of a game will determine if a game is good or not (how many games died a early dead because players quit or the game was no fun anymore after some turns, because of several reasons.???)

I hope with these settings and victory conditions I created a game that can be fun and unpredictible untill the end.
