I'll play you Alneyan. Doesn't look like our rematch is going to happen in Koth anytime soon.

Medium-ish map and no warp openers/closers is fine with me.

[Alneyan]

Oops. I guess I shouldn't have begged for having a rematch.

The other questions about the settings are my usual ones: intelligence or not? Is the Ancient trait allowed? Are the Racial traits fine? (Mainly the Talisman and the Crystalline Armour) Any other twist?

Alneyan V Geo rated Challange

Medium, mid-life quad
No: Warp openers/closers, intel, ancient race, talisman, or crystal armor. Religous trait ok for the facilites and crystal weapons ok, just no using the armor.
Three good planets
High resource start

Sound good?

Anyone want to host? Actually one of us could host it even. Do you want a random map start or do we need someone to make one for us?

[Alneyan]

I am fine with these settings. Feel free to host the game if you want (I would rather not do so myself); either way is fine with me.

A map with hand-set starting points would be better, both to check the size of the map (some medium maps can get *quite* big).

[geoschmo]

Ok, I'll set the game up. So we'd probably need someone to make a map for us? With no ruins, right?

[Alneyan]

No ruins indeed. Incidentally, you may have to upload my Empire file yourself. It looks like the Odd Bug (where I cannot connect to PBW, among many other sites) is back with a vengeance. *Grumbles*

[geoschmo]

I won't be able to actually start the game till tonight, assuming we can get a map by then. If you can't get your .emp file uploaded email it to me.
