Just a reminder of the rules. We are using the following variant rules: The Lost “?” Box (the asteroid in the Neutron Port system is now a ? box), the Own Species Bonus (you are not limited to one buy and one sell on your first turn after landing at your own species’ world), Customized Spaceships, the Agents, Bases, and 2nd Ships rule, and finally, the Quick Startup, which means that the goods you may want to buy may not be available in the early stages. I am making a slight modification to the Customized Spaceships optional rule. For the Niks, only one hold will be restricted for Transports instead of two, and two holds will be restricted for Freighters instead of three. Anybody who wants a more complete description of these rules, please contact me. Victory conditions will be a net worth of $4000.
Also, if a majority of players agree, we will use the combat rules, and if so the Variable Nova Balls and Mercenaries variant rules will also be used. Please vote along with your opening turn bid and race preference.
Well, that about covers it. Happy trading!
