Growltigga,
I don't know, but I suspect we will have the answer shortly. I'll try to start a game and send it to you. Let's do trial and error till we get the mechanics down right, then we can start a serious game were the obvious advantage of my age, (47), will aid me in prevailing over someone so young. < bemused grin >.
I'll try to start a game tonight, (4:30 pm my time).
No matter what happens, We know the Red White and Blue will win.
I will use a small cluster glaxy, no catastrophys, and the defaults for everything else.
Please let me know what you think.

Other formum members: Would you li8ke postings of the progress here?

I'll take the Swiss anyday. They make cool tanks.
Enjoy,

I haven't looked at this in a long time, but this was a useful utility for PBEM.

edit: how's that for "having a response shortly"

dumbluck,
Thanks, and good morning, Care for some coffee? I'll buy.

Do you think we should make a special Ship set based on sharks for my estimable opponnet?

Good evening. (I haven't gone to bed yet, and until I do, it's still thursday evening, so there!)

I also thought of something else for you. You can just use pbw to distrubute your turns, all you have to do is set automatic turns to off. You execute the turns from your computer, and pbw pretty much does the rest.

I would love to take part in a transatlantic, but unfortunately my home 'net connection is down for the moment and will probably remain so for several days.

Maybe after Xmas???

dumbluck,
Evening? In that case, a glass of Merlo?
Thanks again for the advice.

dogscoff,
Just a thought, but if the Glorious Growltigga would accept, perhaps you could "mentor" him in the game and I will seek a similar person here.
