Gryphin likes making maps, actually. It isn't any trouble for him.

I'll have to go with your word on that...and of course, his offer.

So, for a team match such as this, would a Spiral be the best? You know, converging in the center for madness? Also, 6 people (2 teams), medium or large map, ya think? (looking for most attractive possibility and game with good playability).

Slynky,
Yes, what Geo and Fyron said.
I will Randomly generate a few maps
To the size and shape you want. I recomend I use Fyron's Quadrant Mod
You can suggest or send me a SystemNames.txt file I'll use it.
I'll select one of the maps and make sure it is laid out fair which may require adding removing and moving warp points
Placing the players
Anything else?

Personally, I don't like playing mods. Of course, I may be wrong in what you mean by a mod but to me, it means new ships, weapons, etc. I'd rather everyone be on an even keel (with 1.84 stock). Perhaps you mean something else...so, I make myself look stupid, . (not so hard to do)

As to names, I can settle for the standard names...I can finally spell Tessandra (or can I?).

I see you will have a bit of work to do, if it means moving points and so forth. For that, I express my appreciation. In other words, that's .

Fyrons Quad Mod does nothign to weapons or components. It merely changes the maps. It adds more planets, moons, asteroids, and all around total systems. It makes regular SEIV that much more fun. You should download it sometime and use it in your games. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

Is that what we are playing on in the "Tourney"? If it's just a map generator, that's fine with me. And if better...so much the better (so to speak... ).

I guess all we (assuming Asmala will accept his invitation to play with Lord Chane and me) need now is three people who can agree on joining up and giving it a go with us.

I used Fyrons "Standard" quad mod for the PBW Open tourney games. It has lots of extra stuff, but does not require a mod for use during the play of the game. The "Deluxe" Version of the mod has a lot more cool stuff and pretty pictures, but you have to use the mod when you play your turns.
