Still two days left to sign up. The factions taken are PK, UoP, Gaians. There are 3 slots free. The best factions left are the Hive and the Morgans.
A better description of the scnario is :The Hive have a continent in the center of the map while the other six factions have islands around it.
The University are stong offensivly, the Spartans are strong defensivly, the Morgans have a strong fleet, the Peacekeepers have lots of drop troops for quick orbital insertions, the Gaians have psi attack troops and the Believers psi defense troops. The premise is that it takes most of the players working together to overthrow the Hive, but some players might try to score points off each other instead.
The scnario can be got from:
