I want to invite players to the game with a new scenario Tequila War 1

There is a very significant difference between this scenario and those that are used now. the main difference is that the winner is determined not by ecomics, but by military merit! on the team host, the one with more bases, planets and armed ships will win - and a cheap scout will earn as much as the flagship. in phost, there is a more subtle assessment - but again, it is the economic (potential) power that is evaluated.

in this scenario, you can only win by fighting - and it doesn't matter how many bases, planets and ships you have - it matters how many planets you were able to make and hold them, or capture other people's test planets. that is, you can have 50 planets, 20 bases and 100 ships - but few cacti or lizard/evil took your cacti by landing - and you lost. and vice versa - it can also be.....

I'm sorry to put it that plainly but it seems to me that there are not enough players interested in this kind of game. Maybe we should abandon this idea and give a chance to a different setup, i.e. FLAK... Just my two cents... :wink:

I personally like this setup. I just don't have time to play it right now.

The Tequilia game set-up has failed to attract/convince players for years now. If there would be a new FLAK game instead I would sign up immediately.

I suggest starting the game in the current line-up without creating empty races.

so we will announce a wolf game without alliances - it will be even more interesting this way

maybe I will just switch sides - then we can all be friends, build ships with no weapons and whoever has the strongest economy wins the game :lol:

in this scenario, this is impossible - only war, but this scenario works best without alliances - every man for himself

Any more votes in favor of "no alliances, start now"? Then I would set it up.

(still unsure whether I should join as well. Have three games running already, and wanted to be the outside observer in case something goes wrong.)

I am fine with any kind of decision. This Tequila thingy is an experiment for me anyway, I just wanna see how it works, never played it before. I will be no match for anyone there :smile:

Call me old-fashioned, but for a vote by a certain person, I would expect that person to be the sender of the message...

I configured the game with "no alliance" settings. I will start it on Wednesday, removing all slots still open by then.

Game has started. Have fun. Don't drink too much of the Tequila. And maybe make up your minds for an end condition already.

(...oh, the game automatically respawned...)
