Praises be.

Since it seems there is no "real" game starting anytime soon, can you
reset the "slow", "test" blitz next week?

What do you think of a Continental version? Or should I keep it the same?

Continental would be cool. Whatever you wish. I don't make the
world; I just live, fight and (hopefully not) die with honor in it.

Since most long term games use rollover avail, can you use rollover
avail too? It would probably be very confusing to the new folks to
learn the old avail system and then play with rollover avail after
that.

I didn't realize that rollover avail was used - I thought it rare. I can
whatever you'd like, Garry. :) Rollover avail it is - but how muich
should rollover?

That is something that I don't know. Mebbe Ron K or Markus can answer
that in order for things to be balanced.

Or, you can just decide how much you think should be used. After all,
you're creating the world for us. It is a "test, slow " game.

I'd say that there should be unlimited avail so I can build as many
things as I can afford to 100% every update 8). Suddenly there are 50
jfbs flying over.

I'm still loving how there were 120 etus per update last time. At
first we thought it was crazy, but it was fun and turned out to be
good.

Which game are you referring? I've only done 60 ETU games, as far as I
remember.

That was the no-name game, aka missilefest.

I played some games with the rollover avail in the range of 100 to 200
that did not
unbalance the game. I found it interesting in the first few rounds
but then I did not
notice the effect much. It was neat to start radar site and then pull
the civ and let it finish
on it's own using the rollover avail.

Ok, I'll set one up tonight - with rollover avail - I'm thinking Continental - there
will be water - but just more land than water.
