26/Nov/2021 Welcome to FLAK! (FLAK 1)
- streu: Hi, welcome everybody on board, let's go.
- Dahoudaboudadoudawou: Greetinx! First of all thank you Stefan for setting up this new game version. It looks very promising and I am sure it will be lots of fun
- streu: Correct. CCBSim must be the latest version (1.1.21); previous versions do not have FLAK support built in. Simply put, CCBSim is a 16-bit application, and PlayVCR is the 32-bit version of it.

15/Nov/2021 May as well rename "Privateers" to "at0mix" (Planets)
- at0mix: hi! after a long search and with the help of former players from Russia, I found some interesting programs.
- streu: I got most of those already, from a server "vvh.kiev.ua" which now seems to be dead. The next add-on on this server will be Tequila Wars, promised.
- Siba: It's not just addon, but scenario. Addon is kind of a thing that players like or don't like to use, but scenario is what they play for. The best game config would be G-list + Multiscoring ...

08/Nov/2021 alliances (FLAK 1)
- snouka: Two slots remain open, so the game might start soon. Just wanted to tell everyone here that in this game, I will start without any alliance set up before. As some know, I am often teaming up with ...
- James T. Plagerism: Should be an interesting game. I am also starting with no preconceived alliances, we'll see who ends up near me (and I will know... except for those pesky Rebels).
- Dahoudaboudadoudawou: Same here, no alliances before I meet somebody to help me restoring the old republic and drive the Sith off... who may even be defectors from inside the Empire...
- cbacigalupo: good, I'm quite new to the site, and to tell the truth quite rusty in the game, since I played it back in the 90's on a bbs from here in Argentina, but I always wanted to take it up again and I ...
- Zergio: Strong decision! There are two famous alliances in this society, you are the one of them, good day to show own abilities. P.S. Another good news is two slots left! I watched this game for a long time ...
