Newbie Gold game on PBW

Javaslinger:

My intent with the victory conditions is to allow an allied victory. I'm sure one of the more experienced people here can tell me if I set it up wrong. Note that the "at peace" victory conditions are not checked until 10 years have elapsed, so the game will go for at least 100 turns.

Once I download, I'll just put all files in their own folder where the other races are. Do I have to do anything else to make the Vorlons show up?

If the Vorlons have a custom list of shipnames, you should put that .txt file in the Dsgnname folder.

Not having the design list there shouldn't cause any problems in a PBW game, but it might cause an error if the Vorlons are picked as a random race in a solo game.

Be careful--there are two very similar victory conditions. Make sure it's "victory conditions do not apply until after X years" and not "X years have elapsed." I set up a really cool epic game with something like 15 years of peace required and didn't take effect until after 30 years--except it was 30 years have elapsed, so my game ended just as things were getting interesting.
