Race: Klackons
Difficulty: Impossible
Galaxy Size: Medium
Opponents: Five
Color: Red
Map Generation: Random - I just took the first map rolled
Events: On
Game Version: 1.4M - but do we also want to play with SDragon's battle scanner bugfix?
Variant: We are very, very friendly bugs - perhaps too friendly for our own good!
1) You must make every effort to complete a tech exchange as early as possible in each of your turn sets, including choosing one from the first list of options you get, no matter the price! (After the first exchange of your set you can handle tech exchanges however you normally would; this requires only one total trade per turn set, no matter how many other AIs you've met.)
2) Any time an AI requests a trade agreement or a Non-Aggression Pact during the interturn, you must agree! (You needn't accept Peace, War, or Alliance requests however: We're only over-friendly to those who aren't fighting us and aren't trying to turn us into somebody's enemy!)
Also, of course, never "play ahead" (nor replay already-played turns) of the canonical turns while the game is ongoing - that is, don't do anything with the save (like using the Audience button or hitting "Next Turn") that will give you more information or a chance at good or bad RNG unless it's your turn to play - and then play your turns out with the consequences of whatever you do without reloading. Likewise, remember to avoid the known exploits - although some of them (like infinitely recharging specials) are fortunately fixed and no longer concerns in 1.40M.
Our Start:
Looks promising at first glance (I admit some definitions of "promising" may be different from mine!) but I haven't started playing yet, as I'd prefer to let someone else take first crack at it, and I want to make sure of e.g. who's playing and whether we want to use SDragon's patch update. (I'd like to try it out, but am happy either way.)
Roster In No Particular Order, Subject to Confirmation:
- RefSteel
- Arnuz
- Bionic Commando
- shallow_thought
-Cyneheard
- Open if others want to play!
Turn sets: The early game tends to go quickly, so the first player plays 20 turns, the next two play 15 turns each, taking us to 2350, and everyone takes 10 turns per set thereafter.
Succession Game Etiquette: Within 24 hours after the player before you posts the save, please either post a "Got it" message (indicating you've downloaded the save and intend to play your set within the next day or two) or ask to be skipped for a round or to swap places with another player. Within 48 hours after posting a "Got it" please finish your turns and post a save (or request a skip or swap or extension if something comes up unexpectedly).
