Challenge Match

[Slynky]

The vidscreen startled Lord Ithis from his light sleep. Springing to an upright position in his Grav-bed, he rubbed his eyes clear of dreariness to reveal the image of Lord Chane already deep into remarks.

"...immediately, ...reckless behavior unbecoming...and...dauntless indescretions warranting only disgust and removal!"

"What tha...?" Ithis gave in to conscieneness.

"Are you awake Lord Ithis?" Chane's voice echoed through the chamber.

"Mildly so, Commander." Ithis adjusted himself to the light flowing from the vidscreen. "He's an ugly cuss!" he thought.

Fifteen KaRellan time sectors passed as Lord Chane pursued his, seemingly, unending tirade on war plans. When an appropriate pause occurred, Ithis mumbled an obligatory response.

"Noted!"

The room returned to an ambient glow that invited sleep as Lord Ithis rolled on his side, scooped up his stuffed starship sleep toy, and talked himself to sleep...

"Why oh WHY did I ally with such a tempermental sort of person?"

Ya know, if this game doesn't start soon, I'm gonna write even MORE. Now, we wouldn't want that to happen, would we now? Some might call it cruel and unusual punishment... .

Are the players waiting for me and the map or am I waiting for the emp files?

The map is almost ready.

Not hurrying you, Gryphin. Still need 4 empire files. I think the game has been posted for 3 days now ).

I'm sure Asmala will post his when he gets off work today. That should complete out team.

So, you have plenty of time. And, thanks again for helping out here! It has obviously turned into a bit more effort than you first thought.

Slynky,
This is not work. This is design and creation. That is play for me.

LOL...well, don't forget I have tried the editor and it reminds me of a MicroSlop product... .

Way back when (a Southern expression), I used to develop DOOM II levels for deathmatches. Now, THAT was fun.

My teammates and I have to work out some deatails of our strategy. The game settings are a little unusual. Not that that is bad mind you, just not what we are used to. Have to consider the options carefully.

Just double checking.
Is the order the players signed up the order that I should place them on the map and add them to the game?
Makes sence but if I'm wrong

As for the Map Editor
"It is a poor musician that blames his instrument"

I'm looking forward to ED. That had a very nice map editor.

All I know is that the order they joined the game is the order you place them in the game when inserting empires. As to getting teams on the same side of the map...I haven't a clue.

BTW, what's ED?
