Players will start with only one planet and a goodly number of additional planets ripe for colonization in the immediate vicinty. The size of this galaxy will be very small compared to the number of players, leading to early battles. Turn1 reports will be generated on Tuesday, April 13th.

In the subject line, put the words 'enroll gamename'. For example 'enroll skywalker'. The order is not case sensitive. The body of the message is ignored. Please do not enroll in the game if you are not interested in playing or don't think you'll have the time. Having 30% of the players not even bother to submit turn1 orders gets a little old! The turn0 report will be sent to the address in the FROM: line of the message. If you want your reports to go to a different address, you will have to change them in your turn1 orders. NOTE: These games will use the lastest GalaxyNG which has some new options. Please see http://gumpu.student.utwente.nl/~galaxyng for more information. Up
