Each player starts with one world and his personally designed alien race, and chooses a player type. o Independent Civilization Builders are the expansionists, terraforming and colonizing everything in sight. o Agricultural Corporations provide food for all races from their vast farms and bio-ranches. o Cybernetic Races exists to spread accross the galaxy and destroy the biologic races. o Mining Corporations extract raw materials from planets, asteroids and gas giants. o Nomads wander the galaxy turning whole planets into movable Platforms and production bases. o Pirates are the scourge of the spaceways; their raids sap the strength of many planets. o Smugglers secretly deal in information, contraband, and guerilla attacks. o Trade Corporations get rich by trading goods among their neighbors. TAKAMO is a computer-moderated pbm from Advent Games, PO Box 81674, Lincoln NE, 68501. Turn fees are $2.50 minimum, though you can spend up to $15.00 a turn if you are in a once-a-month game.
