Additional Game Infomation/Design
Well, this game is open for all skill levels with only one exception:

The players which join "The great Gathering" can't join here.

But beginners should think twice if they really want to join as the
settings are not common. We have very high starting population, low
mineral levels both on surfeace and core and both on HW and planets.
Also we a food stock pile of 200, which hurts the races which normally
grow fast. Also the hcinfig parameters are changed. Finally we have
stable and unstable WHs.

Also I expect the game lasting long

Victory points will decide the winner. There is an ally limit of 4.
This means the VPs of an alliance are added together.

Bots and Borgs only can win on their own although they could form an
alliance during the game.

If players decide to win within an alliance they have to claim this in
the game banter board and they have go 25 turns before claiming the
Victory of their alliance. And this alliance cannot be resolved
anymore.

The settings are not rigid and can be discussed in the game banter
board.

Host will play also. (Therefore nothing for you Apoy...)
