Ideas for two new PBW games

Yep, we are in the Ancient game together, 24 hour turns. Will be my first time in an ancient galaxy.

All: we now have the full set of 9 players for the W&D game. We still need 3 players for the "Isolation Breakout" game though.
I guess that one takes a special kind of player to appreciate

We are almost ready to start with the War & Diplomacy game. Do you think I should create a discussion thread for the game here on Shrapnel?
That worked great for the Newbie games, but response to the Spiralus thread has been so-so.. guess it depends on the players.

I'd say it depends on whether anyone outside the game would be interested in reading the thread. If so, keep it here. If not, use the Game Forum on PBW.

As for IB: I think it'd be fun, but I don't think I quite have the strategic and diplomatic know-how to succeed in that one. 'Sides, I got enough to keep me occupied!

Guys,
I am waiting to get started with both games, but two people are very slow in sending in their empire files. I have emailed them, and if they don't respond soon I'll kick them.
Start looking for a replacement player just in case :-)

All,
There was one player in both of my games who had the chance for three days to upload his empire, but didn't, and did not respond to my emails. I have kicked him. "War and Diplomacy" and "Isolation Breakout" are back on the list of open games on PBW, for both games we just need one more player, everybody else has already sent in their empire files, so please join and we can get started !

Hi everyone,
I'm the latest one to join "War and diplomacy". Please notice that I use a non-default shipset.

Btw, I have TDM-modpack 1.75, couldn't find 1.72 anymore. I hope this won't be a problem, as there's no AI involved.

Hope we'll be able to start ASAP!

Isolation Breakout -
I just finished my most recent turn and noticed that the system/planet names had disappeared. My colony ships had orders like Colonize *blank* VII, Colonize *blank* IIA. Anybody else have this problem or is it just me?
