Play By Committee SE4 Game.

[Kana]

We going to have ship captains and fleet admirals and such like other PBC games? Pillars of Industry? Science ministry? Senate?

I will probably be interested in being a ship/fleet captain. I only got into the last PBC in the tail end, but it did seem to be alot of fun. If of course will be more fun, if we can get a bunch of people to join up and play.

I guess that SEV isnt quite stable/finished enough (AI) for us to use SEV for a PBC game.

At the moment there aren't very many ships to control, although that will probably change quickly as the system lords respond to the Phong.

If you don't mind the thin pickings, you could be our first Officer.
It will be a little more mercenary than before; each officer will get their own budget, and ask the local system lords to help fund the fleet ala Xcom, in addition to a small percent of the tax revenue.

The Krsqk-bot finance minister will be able to handle monthly repeat transfers of resources so it won't be undue trouble to arrange.

Will you muscle out your competition by providing a superior service, or spread yourself too thin and fail to protect your region?

Lots of interesting possibilities, looking forward to starting.

Look in the subforums; there are no posts on the top level forums yet.

Fyron has added subforums for all the players in The Rich End of Town.

Let him know what you want yours renamed to, with optional description.

Wow, I've always been tempted by PBC, and I think this might be the one for me.

Do those nebulae systems get bosses? Put a few shipyard bases in and they could be quite profitable...

Hey, you're in a bit late, but I can fit you in as the System Lord of Millennia (just the colonies, not the Homeworld).

Nebulae aren't of any value yet, although there is no reason you couldn't stash some of your stuff in there.

Or a ship-bound post would do, or a space-station manager... do you still get little troop avatars that you can fly about the empire?

[Suicide Junkie]

Yes, although I haven't gotten around to adding them to the mod yet.
I've been working on the Finance Automation this weekend.

It now outputs a nice HTML budget page with all your income and taxes, and totals and such.

Budgets are now posted in the Rich End of Town forums

Except for you, Dogscoff, since you don't have a forum yet.
