  • 3 players wanted for SMACX Tournament game

    The subject says, if not all, then almost. 3 players wanted to join knowhow2 in a new SMACX Tournament game. The full settings are listed in the thread at the top of the forum, but in short:
    • 4 humans, 3 AI
    • No Progenitors
    • Standard sized map
    • Standard starting conditions
    • Directed research
    • Difficulty level decided by the players, minimum Librarian
    Most conditions except the number of players can be changed if all players agree. First come, first served.

    I'll take the hive and I vote for transcend level. Also, I know it's a tourney game, but if everyone agrees, could we have an extra colony pod and scout to start? It really speeds things up.

      I'll take the Gaian's please. The extra pods and scout would be wonderful if we're allowed, and transcend sounds ok too.
      Play hangman.

        is it PBEM or are you playing in real time via a lan.

        if it's in real time I'd like to try with the Prophets.

        all the other rules seem cool to me

        ...that is if i'm allowed...I've never done a tournament ...

        Later,

        Antoine.

            oh . thanks anyway

            sorry.

            quick questions: do you e-mail after each turn to each other?
            how long does a game last?

            just curious.

            Later,

              yes, we email our turns. it's takes a while, depending on who you're playing with.

                so you DO play in real time then? just via e-mail. many e-mails over afew weeks?

                if it's all in one day then what is the difference between PBEM and playing directly (apart from the obvious technical differences)?

                later,

                  it's not real time. after u take ur turn, u zip and email the save file to someone else. they do the same. so the games take months to play.

                  this allows players to take their time for each move, and is more convenient for busy people.

                    thanks for the info.

                    I'd love to give it a try sometime (but not on a tournament obviously...I'm a little green)

                    if you have an openning at an other time on a regular game keep me in mind (i usually playLibrarian or Transcend too...depending on my mood)

                    thanks for replying.

                    (I'll leave you alone now)

                    have a great game!

                      Are there any SMAC tournament's ? or are they all SMACX ?
                      This is what it means to be a Spartan. It's not the killing or the suffering that matters. It's the purity of focus, without fear of death or pain.

                        Both. This particular game is X because that is what knowhow2 requested, but if you (or I) can rustle up 4 players, I can make another SMAC game too.
