Galaxy Quest game "Ash" из серии Blind

(пока нечего писать)

Planets: 500, Size: 200 LY x 200 LY, Players: unknown.
2-ходовка, 1-планетка.

Ну в общем ниже оригинальные тексты. Буду счастлив, если кто объяснит мне, 
чего я понял неправильно. :-) Для Krasheroids все началось с этого письма 
в буржуйской рассылке.

Hi,

I'm toying with the idea to start a Blind Galaxy game which incorporates a
"quest" which is to be solved. I.e. the players get a task, and the player
who solve it first win the game.

If looked at it this way, all galaxy games are Galaxy Quest games with
the quest "eradicate all others" ;-)

What I had in mind, though, are different quests like "conquer system X",
"destroy ship Y", "reach 20'000 POP", "settle and hold system Z", "conquer
3 home worlds", "reach cargotech 10", etc.

To test the acceptance, I thought of a "conquer system 0" game. This sounds
easy, yet, well, you know me - and those who don't may think their part... ;-)

If you want to participate in the galaxy game, please tell me (bs@myrnek.de).
Note though that this will be a *BLIND* game.

Deadline is the 2000/12/1, first turn will be 1 week later, most likely 1/week.
(perhaps more often, as player want)

Дальше былo гм... ну что-то вроде заявки. После чего пошли подробности. 
Партия обрела жутковатое название "Ash"("Зола"), условия победы, расписание, 
что-то вроде сюжета и главного злодея (плачьте мальчики-компьютеры). :-)

Hello, dear players-to-be,

this serves as a confirmation that you're known to me that you want to play.

as it looks now, Ash will be a small game, where not too
many races will compete in the destruction of Pritmon.

Pritmon = peaceful race in the middle of nowhere,

a race which sits on a fabulous system, where it sits and
constructs a device that will transform all matter in this
galaxy to energy to be closer to their gods - which is, of
course an effect that would be detrimental to the wellbeing
of your races. The turn 50 has an enormously religious meaning
to Pritmon, so it is to be expected that they have to be
destroyed before or on turn 50.

How does a race win this scenario?

Case 1) the easy one: One race attacks Pritmon and destroys
the system and the fleets around it. This race has won and
gets all Victory points.

Case 2) another easy one: noone manages to destroy the forces
and the system of Pritmon before or on turn 50. Noone gets any VP.

Default) On the turn that Pritmon loses all ships and it's system,
every race that has ship(s) there AFTER the battle has won. 
Number of VP is # of players (including Pritmon) which are equally
divided by the number of players who have won.

После чего последние дополнения с параметрами картогенератора.

The Peaceful Race in the middle of nowhere awaits you - on it's 
home world, which you should find first.

Ash is going to be a 500 systems/ 200 LY x 200 LY game. There'd
be enough space to grow if ... well, if there wasn't that limit
set by the religiously zealous Pritmon ... which as I have stated
earlier to a player don't have anything in common with the Pokemon.

I revamped the balancing code of the Galaxy generation I will check
on your empires now and then to verify the success of the change.

Have fun, and bomb the Pritmon early enough,

Потом был старт и игра понеслась. Карта чем-то напоминает кластерную 
Саргоновскую. С одной поправочкой. Планет с size > 1000 нет. Собственно 
тысячники тоже - только ХВ. Чужие ХВ, естественно. Остальные мягко 
говоря гораздо мельче. :-) Хотя кластера ними забиты щедро. В моем, 
к примеру, их 21 штука. Вот они по убыванию: HW, 966, 469, 302, 274,...
Круто? :-))) Это только начало. Ну а продолжение, бог даст, будет позже.
