Armada 2526 Supernova PBEM campaigns

@Martok;
Free for all might be a little extreme for OJs first MP game so I suggest teams or co-op, although dealing with 8 AI races might be rather fun if we go co-op!

The Klurgu Empire is delighted to offer a relay station site to its good friends for help in eradicating the pink skins. There is currently lots of real estate on Qa-Quish if that suits.

[W8taminute]

I agree with Shelldrake above.  :)

Yeah, I was thinking that as well.  The more I've been contemplating it, the more I like the idea of the four of us taking on a hostile galaxy together.  8)

Marvelous!  The Xpectrada Imperium thanks its close colleagues most kindly. 

Now, I just gotta take those other Assembly colonies (that you're not sweeping up)... 

[OJsDad]

Either Humans or AROM will work for me.  If someone else wants one or the other I'll take the other.

I always liked playing 1 vs 7 in the original StarCraft, so playing 4 vs 8 should be fun.

[Martok]

Oh, before I forget:  W8taminute, what race would you like to be?

Excellent!  I'll try and get the game ready to go after I wake up this evening then. 

Looks like no one's claiming the Humans or AROM btw, so feel free to take your pick.

I'll take the Humans again then if no one else wants them.  :)

AROM is fine with me then.

[Martok]

Sounds good.  I think I'm going to play as the Volmar Dominion, one of the races added in the last update. 


Just three more things: 

1.)  W8taminute, I just realized I need you email address(es) as well.  Can you shoot me a PM with the info? 

2.)  I also forgot to specify the number of turns for the game.  Does 500 sound good, or is that too much? 

3.)  I was thinking that perhaps we could do a collaborative AAR (hopefully including some screenshots) in a separate thread, where we post about our activities during the game as we see fit.  You certainly wouldn't have to post anything if you don't want to (I realize not everyone has the energy for that sort of thing), but it struck me as an idea that might be fun. 

[Shelldrake]

500 turns sounds good and I like the idea of a collaborative AAR.

BTW in our 3-way game my latest attack on the AROM was repulsed with heavy losses (5 corvettes and 3 destroyers; only 2 assault ships and a destroyer survived). Good thing I will soon be in the position to build cruisers.

As someone who doesn't own the game but is intrigued by what I read in this thread I would being interested in reading a collaborative AAR if you guys decide to do one.

[Martok]

All right!  I've got the first turn sent out in our new 4-player PBEM match. 

However, I ended up starting the game twice, as I immediately realized the first map (Large size) was going to be way too small for 12 factions.  I restarted the game on a Very Large map, which I think will work out better.  In any case, please ignore/delete the first turn I sent out.

Guys, I'm afraid you two will have to deal with the AROM without me for the time being.  Those bastard Teyes just sneak-attacked and destroyed my colony closest to my homeworld!  It's on now, baby...  >:(

Good to know!  I hope to have something written up tomorrow after I get home from work.

Just so I'm clear, I need to load the second Four Musketeers file, correct.

Thanks

[OJsDad]

Well, if I used the correct file, then I've completed my turn and sent it back.  That is very slick the way that works.

[Shelldrake]

@Martok,
Is the 4 musketeers co-op the file I want to load?

EDIT: No...now I see that it is the 4 musketeers game that I want.

That's correct.  Sorry guys; I meant to clarify that a little better.  :-[
