Okay, at the admin, we also should post the complete status of a faction and bases, and how many units of each type, small outposts and so on.

Example:
---

Faction Name

Social Engineering

Economy/Psych/Research

Base Name - Population - Production
List of buildings/SP(s) horizontally and list of defending units

'' '' '' (etc)


List of units

list of tech

overview (like what units, are you at war? attacking someone or some base? are you defending? Nerve stapling? etc)


---

Also, moderators, me and Darkcloud, will post random events and so on at Admin. There will be no favouratism from the GM/moderators. I had bad experiences with that.

another thing, DarkCloud, the Chiron Chronicle you started, want it to die off so we can restart completly but can do the same actions, i guess...

actions should be posted like:
---

Name of Faction Game Date(turn 1)


action/story/newsflash/whatever

---


Are we doing 2 weeks or 3 per turn? how many weeks are there in a Planet Year?

Okay, I apologise, some how I missed the point where the game actually started! I backdated my post because so much time has passed without anything happening. If that's not cool, let me know and I'll fix it.

By the way, how is it decided when our current productions get built? Is there a time frame? Just feeling little defenceless with no real troops and a potentially irate Morgan next door. Is anyone playing him by the way?

DarkCloud - I hope you don't mind, but until I'm 'discovered' I will write a couple of articles for the university sun-governor, to help introduce myself. Tell me if I take too much for granted and I will change the post....figure there is no point writing articles for a CC paper etc if no-one else can read them.

It is all right XWaste if you do so.

Googlie may be playing Morgan. But he may not so I believe Morgan is up for grabs right now.

Production Rates are as follows-

Scout- 1 Month
Rover Scout- 1-2 Months
Plasma Sentinel- 1-3 Months
Basic Level 1 Improvement- 3-5 Months
Headquarters- 4-6 Months

-Any more questions can be asked here and I will update the list.

Okay, got the map done, well, the draft for everybody to see. of course, was only able to Dark Cloud, Xwaste and Lightning through email.....since they are the only ones that show their emails in the forum.

I just setup the base for all factions. Drones using Hive base, Cyborgs using University base, Dark Angels using Morgan base, Cult using Gaian base and Pirates using Spartan base.

Some bases positions are bit random, i let the computer setup some bases :P some i had to play the faction to setup the bases, since they keep wanting to move the Colony Pods at the other side of the continent :/ Also input headquarters to all the capitals, but units and land improvements are not placed. Well, if you want me to, i will....and any suggestions also would be nice.
If your not sastified with your Base positions, tell me, or better yet, send the map back with your edits and will copy that to my original copy

Also, i better start my faction up :P

Tired of ads?

Okay, I'm not quite sure if I've been doing the stuff in admin right. Should I have made the new tech discovery and my production be completed? What is an Mts, as in "Plasma Sentinel- 4-6Mts"? Let me know if I'm messing up. I'm just getting a little nervous because I have a very angry Morgan next door and hardly a garrison in sight! Who is controlling Morgan, is it a moderator thing? Ahh! The AI doesn't normally get me this stressed! I guess it's a good thing my connection sucks and I can't play multiplayer

Well Googlie said he would when he got back from his trip.

I'm not sure if he still wants to however.

I hope he does though.

-Mts= Months; but perhaps the numbers should be decreased, any thoughts, [LordLMP] or Argonaut?

Chiron months? That seems like quite a bit of time. Everyone suddenly seemed to have finished producing their garrisons, so I assumed the idea was two regular weeks for a basic garrison unit (i.e. synthmetal, or plasma steel). But you guys are in charge, I'll go with whatever you decide.

So lonely as the only water faction :/ well, lonely until other factions start putting ships in the waters.

Best the pirates can do is start using the sea formers to terraform and go off exploring... maybe first contact? by accident since there is a Comm. Prohibition?

Can I make a suggestion that one of the moderators adopt on of the factions on the continent with the Spartans...its just that I think Cyber might be feeling a little bit lonely with no-one to interact with, as the rest of us seem to be grouped together. Maybe LordLMP, while you're waiting for the pirates to be discovered could adopt the peacekeepers or something.

Yes, but will temporally run the Peacekeepers like Dark Cloud is temporally operating the Morganites or whatever.... Won't state details like what they are building and how many units and what tech they have and so on. I'll wait a bit for the Spartans to send a Scout Rover or so to explore south.

Thats true, Xwaste, nobody to play war games with .
I´ve already started an exploration program, trying to discover as much as possible of the continent on which the Spartans are.The problems is, the map lordLMP sent me doesn´t want to work on my smac.I think its because I don´t have smacx or something.

Cyber-the file is a scenario file, not a map one. You have to select play scenario to open it, not load map file. If that wasn't the problem then maybe you do need smacx - I don't know.

Got spare money?

Can't help with the map then, not being too techy...maybe it corrupted in the transfer and LordLMP might have to send it again.
With the tech, read the rollcall, rules thread which outlines tech advances. Basically if you have picked your social enginering levels to allocate 50% to research then you get an advance a week so - games started on the 13/9. Next tech on 20/9, then 27/9 and so on.
I think anyway
