New Blind Galaxy Game starting! From: bs@myrnek.de (Bernhard Schmidt) Date: Tue, 20 Aug 2002 10:24:46 +0000 N E W B L I N D G A L A X Y G A M E S T A R T I N G S O O N ! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This autumn, I will start another Blind Galaxy game: Libra, a game for newbies. All players get one home world of size 1000, resources 10. Distance between home worlds will be 30 light years. The layout will be completely random, the new balancing mechanism in place (i.e. no handicaps out of the layout). It is a game for newbies, but that does not mean no veterans or hall of famers can play. Members of the hall of fame will get a handicap, consisting of a starting industry on the home world of 0. Should a non-hall of famer want to be treated likewise, he is welcome to such a world. This handicap will ensure that hall-of-famers are severely delayed in their first strikes, up to the point where they are no longer competitive. Start date is friday the 27th of September, turns will be once per week. 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!
