    Hi welcome on board. just saying hello because it can be a pain waiting for a response. Yeah I'll play but not able to construct the game. ( going off to learn though). Since I joined there has been a regular flow of new members. I'm in three games here though 2 haven't quite started or reached me.

    Hang around we may attract other players. Any good at designing.

      Oh meanwhile go read all the strategy hints if you have not done so already. Lots of game play ideas.

      Also while you'r waiting join the democracy game: quite entertaining.

        I have read some multiplayer strategies on and off in the past, but never had the time until lately. I just reinstalled the game and was itching to play something over the net.

        I could start one I guess, but was hoping to play a few to see how I like it going against other human players, and see what people like.

        Yes, I have browse through AC - Democracy, interesting.

            I'm more interested in a simultaneous or just turn base. of course, if I have the time for that once I start working again, which will probably be this week.

              Willing to try IP also

              Hey there Lazerus! Well, I'm just responding to let you all know that if it's a good time for me, I am very much willing to try a multiplayer IP game. Contact me at Arcainite@aol.com if interested and I'll need to know if we're playing with all factions available or just the original ones.

                How's sunday for you ? what time zone you in ? I'm GMT so if you could reply with a resonable time to meet.

                Norm settings, smax, medium-large planet, I don't mind which factions are playing, though if your going to set it up ready to play then make me Hive again

                  my time zone is EST

                  Well, my time zone is in the United States Eastern Standard Time. I hope this won't be an insurmountable difficulty but if so, best of luck. If not, I hope to hear from you guys soon on exactly when.

                    your 5hours behind me, so if we start about 4pm GMT (11 for you) then we could get quite a few hours gameplay.
                    that ok for you ?

                        Do you have to have broadband to play IP. SMAC/x fills whole screen so how does it work interactively

                              conditions? Who will be what factions?

                              What victory and planet conditions are we going to have? Lazerus, your response was somewhat vague. You are hosting, right? Well, let's go ahead and claim who we will be playing. I'd like to play the University of Planet this game. I've never played them yet either and I'm trying new factions I haven't played lately.
