Hi guys. I'm a dedicated hybrid, and it is my opinion that Hybrids, played well, will win most of their games, due to the flexiblity that is inherit in going hybrid. However, before I make such a complete statement my moto, I'd like to test that idea versus humans.(AI is worthless for that sort of test.)
So, here it is. I want to start a Momentum vs. Hybrid vs. Builder game on a large map, with transend level AI, normal seas, native life and erosion. Blind research off, Look first on, all other settings open to suggestions. (It will be SMAX v.2)
The plan is for a game of three players, but if more wish to join I guess I can set up a second game, like Misotu did with her teams series. I'm not looking for Sun Tzu here, just ask that you can take on a transend AI.
I'll be playing Morgan, as the Hybrid in this game. I'm thinking of styles, not factions, so if you want to be, for instance, a Warmongering Cyborg, momentum, that's fine.
To join, post here and contact me at: jbgibson@iol-12.net
Join!

I'd be happy to CMN it.
Need some guidance, though, on how easy you'd want the game to be (e.g. do you want the builder faction to be on easily exploitable land, suitable for growth and infrastructure build, with nearby nutrient and minerals tiles, and some monoliths - or do you want him to be challenged.
Likewise, do you want the momentum faction to be on a large landmass with access to 2 AI factions for conquest - and do you want the hybrid to be a hybrid of these conditions?
And how dumb do you want the AI to be? (you can tweak them to at least give some strategy and alliance potential - at least with each other - and you can start them with some early advantages (a couple of forest tiles, maybe even a crawler or two alrady on forested squares - if you have tried the Roze or Morgan challenge over at CGN, you'll know how tough a tweaked AI can be)
Let me know if you'd like me to CMN it and as I say, give some guidance as to how easy a cakewalk you want it

Sounds good, Googlie, as far as the map goes.
As for the AI, by all means tweak the intel, but don't give them extra crawlers or forest.
Thanks for CMN-ing this. Ok, map and AI for game #1 as you say...Builder is Deimos, UoP. Hybrid is Commodore, Morganites. Momentum is Garth Vader, whatever faction he choses. No blind research, no unity survey, look first, do or die, large map, all victories enabled, pods on. SMAC
For game #2, I shall be Momentum, Spartans. cpt.slick will be Hybrid, Hive. No builder yet...still open. SMAX if possible.
