PBW GAME : Highliner Mod Shakedown

General Woundwort has 4 open slots left for the Highliner Mod beta test.

General Woundwort is looking at starting the beta test next week on Thursday.

If you have some time to beta test a mod to alpha release please take the time out to join the game.

As it is a beta test all empires will be worked out ahead of time for testing all aspects of the mod.

This thread will be used by the beta testers to post highlights of the beta test for the shrapnel community to read.

I look forward to helping General Woundwort and to help the Highliner Mod turn productive.

Please join and help this worthy cause

As this Mod concept sounded very interesting to me, I will join in the test.

It has an AI, pretty functional in 1.4 if you run it at the high end of AI bonus in the game set-up. I was hoping for an all-human PBW game (except for neutrals) to see what bugs and loopholes ingenius human minds could find in the gameplay.

Do you remember where and when you got the zip from? There were several prior reiterations of the mod that, unfortunately, were not "mod-folder standard" friendly.
