@Stefan: If there's nothing to be said against it, would you like to set up this kind of game? It goes without saying that I will throw my hat in the ring and I have a feeling that there might be some players who would like to accept the challenge :wink:

I've been tossing ideas around how this could be done.

I have a feeling that forcing someone to a re-match isn't the best approach if what we're trying to counter is droppers.

So my idea for such a 1:1 game goes for a "Mirror Universe" setup: a starmap with two clusters, far away. Player one plays, say, Feds in one cluster and Klingons in the other; player two plays Klingons in the first, and Feds in the other. Means, everyone submits two TRN files per turn. I'm not sure how that's going to work out. Anyway, no matter how we do it, this "choose your own race" thing needs some coding in front-end and back-end (or manual setup).

This is a testing version.
It may be incomplete, and have more bugs (or features) than the public live version at planetscentral.com.
