Via Discord PM:

Elite Sardaukar
I doubt I will have the time to finish the system for this week at this stage
as a guideline i generally need to allocate up to 20 hours to make a system and at this stage it is not happening

icycalm
Damn that's a lot of time
I'll cook something up, no worries
20 hours a week is not sustainable anyway
Maybe every other week
More likely, once a month

The system I am making will consist of a spawnable 950-radius tropical planet with considerable water, orbited by a small non-spawnable metal planet with no metal. It will be available roughly 24 hours before the game start, which is not as good as I had hoped, but still much better than our previous best, in CW2, which was two-three hours. From next week, I hope to have the system available a good two-three days ahead of time.

Lobby positions will be determined by RNG shortly before game start. Let me know if anyone knows of some way to do this that all participants can trust, otherwise I will simply google "RNG site" and livestream the process.

As for Ragnaroks, on the one hand we have the Ragnarok rule now [ > ], but on top of that I will be deactivating the unit whenever we get a new or newish clan that hasn't proved yet it is trustworthy. I am tired of all the drama, and will use all the means at my disposal to get rid of it from now on.

Keep an eye on this thread for the system and other updates, and let me know if you are interested in live casting the event, because we still lack a caster.

That's a tight system compared to everything else we've tried so far. If more clans show than the basic four it'll be a slaughterhouse.

The Cult will be bringing six people, by the way. Maybe seven, but definitely six.

And I give you... the Battle Royale system: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/ ... royale.pas

Just over 17 hours before game start. Not as good as I wanted it, but still much better than before. We are getting there, slowly.

I will be doing a strategy cast later in the week, when Robo or someone else whose computer can run the replay is available. If there is a replay, that is, because so far mikey hasn't uploaded it where he usually does: https://palobby.com/replays/

@1:08:37 you losing 450 planes against three flak turrets was quite the trade.

I had no idea I was making that trade. I thought I would lose 20 or 30 planes and take the flak down. I've spent the vast majority of my time with PA building bases.
