After some of the abysmal turnouts of late, I thought I would try a new idea.
I plan to gather a fair number of good edits, and have someone like CK who doesn't run anything other than turns, run one game at a time. Basically the edits will run, when someone wins, we cycle to a different set of turn edits. Say, 1-2weeks between games, for people to get corps together. I was wondering what people thought. If everybody can plan for a game to be about every X often, they know to have time, and not get involved in others. I plan to try to contact as many turn players as I can and try to get a feel for if people are interested. I was thinking mostly Universes between 5k-10k, and turns between 700-1500.
The idea would be is that from game to game, people could find different corpies if wanted. I am hoping this may add some like into a game if people can plan ahead of time.
Below are some edits I was thinking of:
Killer Instinct
LOTR
TCW (a few mods)
Chess
Trader Shootout (with a few ship mods)
Stock (1/2 cit times)
If people are interested let me know. I want to try to figure out if it is worth it. Hopefully it would give people who are looking to play turns a place were everybody is playing turns, and try to get the 40+ people in a game.

My schedule is off and on for as for game time in the next few months. When I do have the time to spend on a game I’ll be sure to join.

Hehe, such a dastardly plan it is. I might suggest some different edits (of mine) as well. And everyone knows I'm a total newb. I don't belong in a game with such skilled players.

Mainly because I didn't think of Moon Patrol. And well, Call to Battle basically is there. Stock 1/2 Cits
It was just a general list. But as not many people are posting saying they are interested, I'm not putting too much work into it yet.

I'de join, I'm deffinatley a newbie though even though i've been playing off and on for 4-5 years, I'de just hope some of the experienced players would take me under their wing and teach me the intricasies of Tradewars, heck i'de even be the "colo *****" if need be, just want to get better. Oh and here's another idea have a sign up, bang date, closed game ect so everyone gets started the same day. Also accumulated turns would be nice for the people who can't play every night. Maybe have two games one corporate required the other purley solo. Just some ideas...

[;)] Hey, I am Interested, kinda like the idea of accumulated turns too. I work 24on 48off type of shifts and can't play every day, but with accumulated turns I might stand a chance to play. Anyway, count me in either way.
