Hey, Tim, great to have you aboard!
Let me see if I can answer your questions...
Hey all, My names Tim and I am taking control of Al-Malik.
Sorry my turn is taking so long, but this game is a real disaster!!!! (No wonder the last guy quit) In any case, I prefer I lot of diplomacy so feel free to email me at
timothylooney@hotmail.com.
I have a couple of questions;
1. Who do I mail the turn to ( I know its LiHalen but what is the address?)
2. What are the house rules, specifically;
A. Can I take a loan from the league?
Well, only if you pay it back! Honor rule.
B. Can I sell maps?
As many as you want - selling maps is encouraged in Hyperion games since you usually need some extra money to make ends meet.
C. Do I have to wait a turn between declaring war and landing troops on NPC planets?
No, the Corinthian galaxy is balanced such that if you find such a weakness you should exploit it. Be careful, though, of attacking and capturing expensive space ships if you can't afford them (I guess you can always disband them so that no one else can get them).
D. What is the min/max of loyalty meddling I can do?
You can go the full range so long as you don't change it multiple times during your turn.
E. Can I destroy crates of goods in my cities to prevent capture?
Do whatever you like, if you can sell them that would be better.
F. Can I starve a city until catches the plague?
No, you can't do that one.
Also (unrelated to house rules)
Is this a really cutthroat game?
I'm screwed aren't I?
Well, not really, but you certainly have a serious challenge ahead of you! al-Malik did some damage to Hawkwood before Hawkwood whomped on al-Malik, but I don't think your situation is unrecoverable.
If you want, I'll trade you Hazat.
What are all your email addresses?
How quick is the average turn turnaround?
Thanks
NBR
I'll send you the email addresses in an email and then the game will get rolling again!
Feel free to ask lots of questions!
Matt
