[TECH] PB22 Organization and Tech Thread

[Dreylin]

I can use a dedlurker/teammate. So feel invited

Groovy, I'll decamp to your thread and start nesting....

Edit: Er, I guess when you start one.

Beginning to work on the map. What size do you guys want? A huge map gives 11 players automatically, so that's what I intend to roll. Obviously that affects the tech rate though, I can change it manually, what do you want it set to?

A huge map should be fine. I think the cost should be set to large though, otherwise the tech costs really constrain the early game.

What does everyone else think?

[Commodore]

I'll second, Huge map rolled, then manually reset to Large for tech costs. Large/Monarch been the baseline for these things' cost.

[dtay]

Agree with the above

[Gavagai]

Agreed.

[Furungy]

I have nothing against Huge map, but I think Large will make the game more dynamic.

[GermanJoey]

I for one would greatly appreciate a little breathing room. I like the huge map, large setting idea.

Hi guys,

The current position on the map is this; I took the starts the game rolled and tried to buff/nerf them as required so that they are approximately the same strength. The starts are wildly different in places but I believe the variation in strength is at least within the levels of PB8, PB13. This approach has met with a bit of a mixed response in the lurker thread. If you guys are happy with this approach, I'll send out the starts in the morning. If you prefer, I can give everyone a similar, almost mirrored, capital.

Fine by me, no need for mirroring or whatever.

No preference either way, your discretion
