I personally like the Foundation setup.

I also really like the exploration, random map, StarbasePlus. The only thing I would change if I could would be PList 3.2 and full PHost features. Making it no-cooperation would be a bonus.

Of course I get the point of not bringing up too many different games which could cause the games to slowly fill up.

Brainstorming in a slightly different direction: smaller games. What about games with only 5-6 players? That way there's no waiting for somebody to take the last Empire/Rebel slot (always the last two to fill). Game should be mastered with only those few players and not with 6 dead races waiting to be conquered.

Yellow :smile: I know this thread is not updated since a year. But the question remains....
Lot of good ideas have been mentioned here and i also would love to see games where

  • you choose a race randomly
  • number of players is lower than 11
  • race rotation is enforced

These are some very good ideas. It would help to give the game another bump... Unfortunately the number of real players and the free-hosts is significantly decreasing.
