New Galaxy Explorer game forming From: "Richard Batch" <rbatch@san.rr.com> Date: Wed, 13 Jan 1999 00:00:00 +0000 Just a short note to inform you that a new Galaxy Explorer game is being organized. Galaxy Explorer is a variant of Galaxy with a several subtle differences which significantly alter play strategy: limited knowledge of the galaxy, battle resolution, partial tech, and an expanded command set. New additions to Galaxy Explorer include a partial bombing and conversion of worlds rule and a 100% accurate orders forecaster. For more information on Galaxy Explorer, visit the Explorer home page at http://home.san.rr.com/explorer The plan is for this game to run three times a week (after an initial period of about two weeks when turns will be processed five times a week). I am planning for the game to have thirty-six players but that could increase if sufficent interest is expressed. If you are interested in joining send a message to batch@dtai.com and include the words "Sign Up" <yes, my mail filter is case sensitive> some where in the subject. Please get your responses back to me quickly as the games tend to fill up quickly and I tend to jump the gun a bit and start the game before the stragglers have had a chance to respond. Richard P.S. For those of you who have never played Explorer before and want to get a quick introduction before this game starts, send a message to galaxy@loki.cybase.net. A starter game is kept continuously running there to enable players to get used to the mail server and commands before testing their mettle against seasoned players. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------- Galaxy Explorer email: batch@dtai.com http://home.san.rr.com/explorer Referenced By Up
