Vultur · April 22, 2002, 02:48

All my PBEM games are stucked since month ago (except for Dominus Trascendi Challenge 10th)
Anyone want to start a new SMACX PBEM?
If yes put your favourite faction.
No aliens allowed

knowhow2 · April 22, 2002, 08:38

I would like to play, I only have SMAC though... I'm also new (never played against human opponents).
Thank you for your consideration

Chaunk · April 22, 2002, 13:16

I'd love another game.... Cyborgs please or PK's if SMAC only...

chaunk@mail.com

Vultur · April 23, 2002, 05:53

We are in four, it's enough for a PBEM, also if SMAC...
SMAC only:Hive
SMAX:Pirates

Arnathalon · April 23, 2002, 07:25

If you still have room for one more im in!
preferred faction Gaians

knowhow2 · April 23, 2002, 12:36

if SMAC, then I take Morgan (whom I don't think ever played as before in PBEM either).

xeno7667 · April 24, 2002, 03:04

If there is a free place, I would like to take Believers

xeno7667 · April 24, 2002, 03:08

uups sorry, didn't see, that the sloots are full. But why not a game with 5 players?

Chaunk · April 24, 2002, 08:21

Well with xeno thats 6... how about a 3x2?

knowhow2 · April 24, 2002, 08:43

If we choose to play with SMAC
then player-faction:

knowhow2-Morgan
vultur-Hive
Arnthalon-Gaians
Chaunk-Peacekeepers
xeno7667-Beliviers
KrysiasKrusader-? (spartans or UoP)

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
How about also starting a pararell PBEM smacx with

knowhow2-Drones
Vultur-Pirates
Chaunk-Cyborgs

KrysiasKrusader · April 24, 2002, 11:32

I'll take the University. Umm... What's a 3x2 ?

knowhow2 · April 24, 2002, 11:37

3x2= either a) 3 teams with 2 in each,
or b) 2 teams with 3 in each

knowhow2 · April 24, 2002, 11:51

how about:

PKs, Gaians, Beliviers

vs

Hive, Morgan, UoP

,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Spartans eliminated from start.

Arnathalon · April 24, 2002, 12:35

hmm.. i would rather play a standard "everyone vs everyone" game.. and let the alliances (if there will be any) evolve in-game

Vultur · April 24, 2002, 12:40

For me is good to start a parallel PBEM.
Who start?
I suggest this rules:
Both:
Trascend level.
Huge Planet, Lot of fungus.
No tech stag.
No spoils.
No map survey.
Yes Random event (I

randomness)
No diplomacy before the contact.
Only 3x2:
No diplomacy at all between the Good Guys

(PKs,Gaians,Believers) and the Bad Guys

(Hive, Morgan,UoP)

KrysiasKrusader · April 24, 2002, 16:54

UoP are considered bad ?

Okay I'll be evil then...

Hope Hive & Morgan can put up with a newbie UoP

And how come no-one picked the UoP before me ? Are they considered inferior in multiplayer games ???

xeno7667 · April 25, 2002, 01:21

For me it doesn't matter if it's a team game or not. I am intereted in both.

Chaunk · April 25, 2002, 06:53

How about we play 2 different games? One allied, one free for all.

UoP is no matter MP or SP real tough to crack (however in team-play they usually stay behind the others a bit since their only advantage with tech lead which the share with their teamates.

knowhow2 · April 25, 2002, 06:58

I go for anything, 1 game or 2 game. team or yourself.

Arnathalon · April 25, 2002, 10:24

so.. whats it gonna be... team or not?.. i vote for not!

Arnathalon · April 25, 2002, 10:27

like knowhow2 said.. some factions loose their bonus to research, probe and stuff if u just share everything with your teammates. (but that dont mean you cant ally in-game with someone and still share all tech. Im just saying we should have a choice)

KrysiasKrusader · April 25, 2002, 10:42

I don't have the experience you guys have in making the game decisions.
Just try to give me a fighting chance though.

Chaunk · April 25, 2002, 11:48

I'd vote for both, but I guess I'm easy...

You don't need a lot of experience... just play at your best.
I suggest to start the SMAX game first, free for all:
For now there are:
knowhow2-Drones
Chaunk-Cyborg
Me-Pirates
There is anyone that want join to this game now?
For the 3x2 I suggest to wait a mom.

xeno7667 · April 26, 2002, 01:25

In the smax game I would take Cult of Planet

knowhow2 · April 26, 2002, 04:00

We need a CGM

Chaunk · May 1, 2002, 17:49

Anything happening in this?

KrysiasKrusader · May 1, 2002, 18:26

Since the SMAX game seems stalled, why don't we try the SMAC again ? We've got enough players.
