New Blind Galaxy Games Starting Soon! From: bsnt@wirecard.com (Bernhard Schmidt) Date: Wed, 20 Aug 2003 13:18:52 +0000 I am happy to be able to announce: N E W B L I N D G A L A X Y G A M E S S T A R T I N G S O O N ! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This summer, I will start more Blind Galaxy games: (1) Dash, a quest game, i.e., instead of the "kill everyone else", the goal to achieve is something else, in this case: be the first one to have settled a specific world far far away (depends on number of players, about 500 to 1000 LYs) and hold it for 3 turns. 2 turns/week, starting date: end-august. (2) Scorpio, a "normal" game, alliance wins allowed. 1 turn/_WEEKDAY_ (5/week), starting date: whenever my automated turn-running script is finished. Count on it for end september or so ;-) (3) Sagittarius, a "normal" game, highlander style. 1 turn per week. Random map. Starts mid-october (4) Capricorn, a "cluster type" game, alliance wins allowed. 1 turn per week. A Cepheus style game with the one or other gimmick in it: one (or more?) paradise system, "experience" for groups (example: a fighter that kills another ship gets better at shooting). Number of clusters depends on number of players - also how many races may win together depends on that. Starts late September. As always, I do not play in my own games, and am there for questions of all kinds (especially those concerning my games ...) and help for newbies. Please sign up as soon as you can to give me a picture of the size of the games. Sign up here, stating that your mail has something to do with signing up to a game in the subject! myrnek@myrnek.de Bernhard Schmidt PS: If you know someone who might be interested in this, forward it to her/him!
