This one will feature the Master's new toy: jump gates.

Scenario will be posted later this week. See you Sunday.
Cool, I'll try to make it next Sunday.

Eric:
It sounds fun... in a bizarre sort of way (kinda like Escalation!)
I had plans for today, but if free next Sunday, I'd like to join in.

After having some experience with multi-player games though, I'd suggest one change.
Use Fleet scale and limit it to 75 points or so. If you manage to get 4 or 5 players, it'll take 7 or 8 hours to play a full game using Squadron scale. At least with fleet scale, the time frame will be more managable.

Polans?

:wink:

That might make for a good change, although it was just me and eric last game so I'm not sure.

And an interesting game it was! I had a Tholian CAP and Eric used a Frax CA. I made a tactical error in, uh, bob (The Name of my short-lived web hexes). Erics main problem was that he was going too fast.

I should be there this Sunday, but I possibly might be slightly late (maybe closer to 10:30am PST, or maybe not). Looking forward to it,

Are we on again for this Sunday (the 7th)? I should be able to make it at about 10am PST (I believe the time change happens then) to finish the game we started last Sunday.

YEAH! Smackdown is on. Sunday: 1 PM ET / 10 AM ET! Battle starts 15 minutes after... and ends at 4:15. Point value wins.

This week: We are raising the cap a little, to 170 points (which is more Gorn friendly, lol).

See ya there!

Cool!

Just a reminder to all that the time change back to Daylight Standard Time happens then. Remember to set your clocks back an hour on Saturday night (the 6th).

Hey guys: just wanted to tell you that I can't come today. I had a previous commitment that I forgot about until today. My apologies, I hope you get a good number of players to show :) I might be able to come and watch the end at least, so make it a good battle :wink:

Have fun!
