I decided to put maps up for all the games except game D which is request only. The maps on the website are for tonight at 7pm CST.

Hope to see you there.
If there is a different game that is not up let me know if no one enters another I might consider changing it out or adding it next time around if enough interest is shown.

Alien Retribution is 25K turns which is almost unlim and lots of aggressive aliens to fight.

In the vast galaxy (known as the Delta Quadrant), alien races begin their sweep for conquest. Each race have one goal- total domination. Only the humans can prevent the spread of the alien threat, and keep order in the galaxy. There are 8 Alien Races. This game will require skill and team effort to capture Alien Homeworlds. They will not give in easily, and will attempt to recapture their world. Stock ships are disabled. You have special ships/planets to use.

8 Alien Race - Alien Traders, Ferrengi, Klingons, Romulans, Jem'Hedar, BORG, Vulcans, Cardassians

Umm, no. Maybe 2.0 to 2.5 hours total on turns once running good, probably less depending on tpw and strategy needed for the game.

Ummm ok from someone who swears to never play an unlim since I prefer being at the keys :shock: I guess I could be wrong :? heh

I might look into it later I am still curious of the bandwidth for something like that as I have not had enough traffic yet to determine if my WIFI connection can keep up. Would rather be sure than have to take it back down.

I believe the CPC setting and the alien load may be the deciding issues, but I could be wrong. A CPC around 20 should keep things going well - fast enough (I prefer 50), but not to the extremes of a 0 setting or as slow as the default of 4. A lot of games with aliens will create a load on the server, but not a bandwidth issue.

The example I used for time is based on the normal steal script I use in unlims. I was also assuming a CPC in the range of 50 or 0 with a decent ping time.

As for the bandwidth on your WIFI, I don't know exactly how much bandwidth is really required. Sing may be able to provide some information as I believe he uses a bandwidth monitor on his system.

Oh, if you play an unlim AFK as a red with any comp, you will be flipped and #SD#. Truce games give people the impression that unlims are nothing but fire a script, go AFK and come back 10 hours later with a couple billion in cash. Sad to say, that is the only type of games some will play.

Ah ok, I been running a bandwidth monitor for a few days now but load has been light will keep and eye on it. Most of the games I have up are using 40 or 50 for the CPC. I might come looking for help when and if I get into the Unlim games.

I am on WIFI 1700K U/D so far I have never seen above 6.8K but loads have been light. CPU seems to idle along at 2-3% unless I ma using remote desktop which uses quite a bit more. If I get enough traffic to warrant a bigger machine I will look at it later. This one was just sitting around handy.
