Giving Humans "X" starting advances

[Grandpa Troll]

Could someone tell me , for a scenario, with a couple humans, how I could allow each human to have say 3 advances of their choice?

is it possible

I was wondering with the one free tech game could that be changes somehow to allowing a human "X" choice instead of one choice?

If so would that throw the game off or would say if you picked mass transport for troops ships at start

could you

A) have troop ships if you didnt have any sea faring advances yet?

B) If you picked mass transport you would or would not be allowed the next advance after mass transport or would you still have to drop back and pick up all prerequisites up to that point first (Preferably)

Thanks

Took me all day to think up that one

I shall await experts to advise me

I think you still have to pick up all the prerequisites for an advance, of course you could give all the needed prequisites without giving the prerequisites of the prerequisites.

Yes, it should be possible, although it will likely make the SLIC a bit messier. Download the OFT SLIC (I assume it's available somewhere...) and take a look.

Indeed I shall

I played around a little bit with the OFT scenario and made it ... the MFT scenario (Multiple Free Techs that is) . It works pretty much the same as the original, except that you can now choose how many free techs to grant. The tech granting mechanism doesn't care about prerequisites, you can coose anything you like . And it doesn't care about the techs you already have. So you'd better look at your science screen before choosing one .
