A link to cyberboard and the tile set would be a starter

As for the tileset... still trying to get a hold of Max Power for the F&E set he has...

So far, I am leaning towards some stuff in SFCShadow's ruleset.

Since we want to go with traditional alliance and coalition (or so it seems from the posts) I think we should head to just 2 teams. Alliance and Coalition, but with each race having a 'commander' who deals with builds, economy, and moves.

Unless we get 3+ full time peeps for each race, I think that is the way to go.

I think we need to have a new thread just for sign up, and not cluttered with other posts. I said earlier and I still think that it is important to know exactly how many people are firmly committed to playing. Players need to know what the speed of the game will be as to better decide if the pace is suitable for them to commit to. The worst is players that say "Ya, ya I am in" and then fail to live up to the needs of the game. That hurts both the team they are on, and the game in general.

I am firmly in, and will take any race that helps flesh the game out. If all races are chosen I certainly have preferences but will fly anything if needed.

I would also suggest that in addition to race captain's that there also be a team captain, maybe the biggest race's Captain for each side can also double as an overall Team Commander. IE maybe like Fed and Klingon (or Rom) Team captains can also act as overall Coalition or Alliance Commanders to help in coordinating an overall effort for the teams.

Even if a overall team captain is not set by the rules,. I will look for someone on my side to be nominated to help with a overall strategy for our team. If each of us just goes Hay diddle diddle we will be less effective.

762 & I discussed this the other night. SFCShadow's campaign only had 2 sides, alliance and coalition.

I think (and I think t00l agrees) that we should start it out with 2 sides and if we end up with enough people to get 3 or more per race, then we can further subdivide the groups.

Anyways, I will make a separate sign up post.

I hate to say this, well actually I don't because I hate plasma..
but would it not be easier (I'm only thinking of you of course Bear) if this was attempted concerning only
the Western theater of Ops?
No need to worry about the ISC, more players per race, no evil people shooting plasma at me, no chance I'd be expected to fly Rom
plus the added bonus of annoying the Feds- as all their fancy schmancy plasma ships would be eliminated from the list.

Really it's like a win-win-win idea.

Until Y173 that's what it will be anyway.
