I can set up a game through the Sovereign's Lounge, right? I assume that you are the player on the invite list named RPC, so do I just invite you to a game?

Anybody want to play?

I'd like to get a PBEM or slow-paced server (I haven't actually used the server so I don't know how it works) game of Windows Anacreon going, since I haven't played in ages and would like to get a feel for the game again. Would anyone be interested in playing one of the beginner scenarios like Recon...

Re: Anacreon 3.0 Questions

Perhaps only a certain size of fleet can pass through these temporary stargates (the one to otherwise unaccessible systems) This is the idea that I was trying to get across, although you did so a lot more succinctly. Only a certain total strength-equivalent of ships can pass through a transient gat...

Re: Anacreon 3.0 Questions

1c. I fully intend to exploit gates/warp links. Stargates essentially allow the topology of the game to change at runtime. It is true that playing Lesotho is not very interesting. But imagine if there were a stargate in Lesotho leading to Sri Lanka or California. Perhaps all empires start out with ...

Re: Anacreon 3.0 Questions

Atarlost, some of the most profitable and popular browser-based games out there right now are things like Farmville and Trabian that do not require the kind of concentrated gameplay that you're describing. We can quibble about the relative despicableness of their business models and all that, but it...

Anacreon 3.0 Questions

George, I'm really excited about the prospect of an Anacreon 3.0. I've enjoyed both Transcendence and the PC version of Anacreon; moving the game to a browser-based format is a logical progression. I do have a few questions about how you are envisioning the game playing out: You mention that you env...
