As for difficulty if we could keep that about middle range I would appreciate it. If not it is no big deal.

Increase Your PM Length

I would vote for transcend. In a multiplayer game the only thing this is really going to impact is the drone rate. The human players are going to be so far beyond what transcend AI are that it won't even be funny.

Transcend all the way!

I can CMN if you want.

50-70% water, eh? In that case would you like the AI's to build probe cruisers?

Anyways, PM me your password choices if you have one. Also, if someone has a name they prefer for the turn tracking thread, why please let me know so I can use it when setting up the turn tracking thread.

I am going to start building the game based on this. Each player will start out with 3 scouts (Spartans replace two scouts with 2 rovers), a regular CP to plant your HQ, and 2 rover CP's to expedite planting your 2nd and 3rd bases. The game should be ready by tonight.
So, I still need:

1. ForesterSOF's desired Faction, as well as a password.
2. A name for the turn tracking thread.
3. Also, because this is SMAC, why playturn is set, so I will also need linux134's E-Mail address to mail the first turn to.

I have always gone by the principle that the threadstarter is the boss, so his word is final (just play nice with the nubes, shawnmmcc! ).

Or how about the "Mystery of the Pentagon". Premise for the game: once safely ensconced on Planet each of your Factions' communications equipment pick up a strange broadcast emanating from somewhere else on Planet. After your crypto-analysts are able to decipher the message you realize it is some sort of alien distress beacon! Further, the signal is still playing realtime images from the site of origin, which is a roughly "pentagon" shaped island in the middle of Planet! Although there is no sign of the living amongst the ruins, your Factions all realize that taking control of the Ruins left by the mysterious alien civilization, or at the very least denying them to your rivals, must become an important milestone if you are to succeed on Planet!

Whad'ya think?

But I've never played the Hive in PBEM - I promise to be as sweet and nice as Lazarus (Darsnan is going to nail me for that comparison)

Put an end to popups!

I've started the turn tracking thread for the game here . This thread has served its purpose and is now closed.
