Quadrant type: FQM V1.18 galaxy <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">There will probably be a 1.19 before your game starts. It will probably just have a few new quadrant types, maybe the random tweak here and there.

you might want to make the game alittle smaller say med size galaxy... It will make it more manageable with the fqm.

say 75 to 100 systems tops....

ideal would be 50 to 70 systems using fqm.

due to the number of planets.

Zero technology cost?

Even on low, it still costs something...

We need one more player then we can start.
*** Sorry, this game is not for PBW newbie because of complex setting ***

If you don't know how to set up your empire in a NO INTEL and MAX TECHs game, you should not join.
Thank you.

So, when one receives all tech at the beginning, if one takes, say, Psychic, does he get all those abilities without researching?

Just like the game now with Roanon in KOTH...built the hell out of research in a system and (low and behold!) no space port! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon8.gif
