Was this meant to be rule for the Imperia? Probably too late now to add it as a rule, since the Imperia already started.

Don't worry; it wasn't meant as a rule. Catwalk asked that I inform all players (as I did in the notes) that the only habitable planet within range is at the green star which happens to also be the only one within three parsecs, so I figured I'd add the bit about the ship only lasting for three years as flavor. If you want to use the colship as an expensive short-range scout or save it until you land another range tech or something, or if you just don't believe Catwalk or are feeling contrary or whatever ... well, none of that is against the rules! Good luck!

Yeeowch! Kitties on impossible (a combo I have never won with), plus additional restrictions. yikes

Or maybe that should be "Meeeow-ch"? lol

I will try to find the time for this one. It shouldn't take long to be crushed ruthlessly by the AIs, after all....

I know, right? On behalf of those of us (like me) who haven't finished yet though, thanks for being patient and avoiding early spoilers!

Of course, you can always "talk about it" in the meantime by composing your report, so when closing day comes around, you'll still have the record you created when the game was fresh in your mind.

Another thing I once did when I finished a game early was (after writing my real report) starting again on the same map, with the same variant, to try a different strategy I was sorry I hadn't used the first time through. Of course, the second game was a shadow, but in the case of Imperium 12, it was a blast to play through anyway, and definitely worthy of its own report.

I've been whipped by real life the last few days, but I'm hoping to get to it in the next week. Thanks for not spoiling it for me, folks!
