SMACX Scenario w/Custom Factions & Fanfic

[bdanv]

Submitted for your enjoyment; a SMAX Scenario, the February 2010 Game of the month.

The original SMAC leaders are all dead in a mysterious incident. The survivors back home have to cope with the ensuing secession issues, the political-diplomatic chaos it causes Planetwide, and for some, their own personal loss, too.

Celebrated SMAC(X) fanfic author Alinestra Covelia was head writer on the companion fiction, and the factions in the scenario are all custom versions of the original seven, to help make the game fresh again.

The .zip holding the whole thing can also be downloaded here by non-registered users.

The scenario can be played at any difficulty level and even though it doesn't have a time limit, it should be completed in less than 100 turns.

Have fun reading and playing!

Been playing this for a while and i have to say there are way too many Starting Pods. The Luck factor is too high for my taste, in this starting position an extra Rover can go a long way.

yes, going for some objectives instead of the standard victory conditions can give that feeling. you have to focus on achieving your goals right from the start and stear away from the usual 4x approach.
thanks for taking the time to play it and also for the feedback.
no word on the fiction? have you read it?
