Game 54572: Cpt Fishmonger, Chris1977, Drigert, RABID in 'Reanimator 4-Player'

RABID, do you have an opinion on whether to cancel? We COULD fight it out on a "psychic" basis (ability to see each other's positions on the scanner/Details screen. On the one hand, this would be a bit unfair to the Cap'n, given that he has the least remaining "skin" in the game; on the other, regardless of who was the last team standing I guess we'd ALL be due some league points at Drigert's expense given that we're all on the oppositeside to him. So I'm torn!

Thanks Steve, on this map the monitors are all allies so we are able to see each other - please cancel.<br /><br />Alas I can&#39;t take credit for Keo Kebab, I assume the names are already pre-set?

Game 54572: Cpt Fishmonger, Chris1977, Drigert, RABID in 'Reanimator 4-Player'

The only option is the one you&#39;ve selected, to remove a player that&#39;s taking too long. Normally the game would cancel if all the players of one side disappeared, but due to the nature of this mission where everyone is technically against each other, the game will continue. I can cancel is if need though, just let me know. Maybe you want to fight to the death. :D

Posted by Chris1977 69 days ago

Game 54541: Chris1977, Cpt Fishmonger in 'Reanimator'

No, it&#39;s just that if they&#39;re all dead it isn&#39;t possible for you to make a move until they&#39;ve reanimated again, which means it automatically defaults to my turn again. This happened repeatedly after you&#39;d committed them all to attacking the big group, which meant that eventually the turns simply ran out.
Posted by Chris1977 69 days ago

Game 54541: Chris1977, Cpt Fishmonger in 'Reanimator'

Posted by Cpt Fishmonger 69 days ago

Game 54544: Cpt Fishmonger, Chris1977 in 'Impregnator'

Actually, since I raced through my later turns in Reanimator (owing to killing off all the zombies on each of my goes), and Impregnator was such a bust, how about you set us up with something before The Assylum has run its course?

Posted by Cpt Fishmonger 69 days ago

Game 54544: Cpt Fishmonger, Chris1977 in 'Impregnator'

Oops! Evidently just taking up a defensive position (however strong-seeming) and staying there doesn&#39;t cut the mustard vis-a-vis aliens/weak walls! Lesson learnt...<br /><br />Let&#39;s let our games of Assylum/Reanimator play out, then maybe set something else up.

Posted by Cpt Fishmonger 70 days ago

Game 54501: Chris1977, laxen in 'All Seeing Eye'

Hmmm...I don&#39;t think there&#39;s another where one side knows the enemy&#39;s whereabouts at all times, but advanced mode allows both sides to &quot;hear&quot; units who are moving/shooting in nearby squares, and the alien in...well...Alien can hear the Nostromo crew members from considerably further away. And then there are alternative unit types who have other supernatural abilities: the angels, for example, have a Doctor Who thing going on (super-fast, deadly at first strike, indestructible, but can&#39;t move if in any enemy&#39;s line of sight), and the zombies, while slower, reanimate after a random number of turns. Happy to set something up if any of that sounds intriguing.

Game 54456: Chris1977, Drakester, mirkiov in 'Egg Hunt'

Hi Chris. I&#39;ve had a look; the mission doesn&#39;t take into account whether any units escaped, it only checks that there is an egg on the escape hatch. <br /><br />Actually, it looks like there&#39;s a bug: if the player escapes with the egg as Drakester did, the egg disappears so it doesn&#39;t get counted! I&#39;ll fix it. I&#39;ll change it so that a player wins if they have unit that has escaped while carrying an egg.

Game 54456: Chris1977, Drakester, mirkiov in 'Egg Hunt'

Hi @SteveSmith, I&#39;m puzzled as to why this was a draw: by my reckoning, Drakester, as the only player to have a unit escape with an egg, should have won.

Good news everyone! Thanks to the generosity of two new patrons Dijon_p and Hansolo, Stellar Forces will be able to continue for now. I&#39;m very grateful to all the players who make monthly monetary contribution to the game. It still doesn&#39;t quite cover the costs, but I don&#39;t want SF to disappear so I&#39;ll make up the shortfall for the time being. Hopefully more new patrons will sign up which will ensure it can continue in the long term. If you enjoy playing SF, spread the word!
