       - Starting forces, domain counters, and some fixes to the map.
       - The "Current Turn" page.

    After these things has been added which will be very soon (less then a day probably),
    The game will start, starting with the 1st Strategy Phase.


    Just two tiles left, they will be placed by "The Emirates of Hacan" and "The Yssaril Tribes"


    "The L1Z1X Mindnet" has placed their tile, it is now "The Universities of Jol-Nar"'s turn to place 2 tiles.

    The Strategies page is up, you can see all the strategies there,
    including The Ancient Throne ISC, when the game starts you'll be able to see there
    who took each strategy and how much bonuses, if any, are on each strategy.



    The L1Z1X has places their tile, Mentak Coalition is the next to place a tile.



    From now on, all actions should be posted on the FFG forums instead of via e-mail.



    July 7th



    The first tile has been places by "The Universities of Jol-Nar".
    "The L1Z1X Mindnet", this is your turn to place one of your hexes.



    hvcfl is out until sunday, we're having a replacement player, Ryan Smoker, to replace him in the map building stage.

    Ryan Smoker's E-Mail - ryansmoker@gmail.com



    OK! Let's start building the map, you can see the current map on the "Detailed Map" or "Small Map" pages.
    The Yellow Hexes are available places for your Hexes.


    Universities of Jol-Nar, you are the first to put a hex.
    Name the hex you put and the number of the place where you put it (from 1 to 6).


    Again, it will be better if you E-Mail all players where you put the hex, so the next player,
    The L1Z1X Mindnet, would be able to put his hex and so forth.



    The following is now the seating order clockwise from the speaker,
    this is the order in which you will place systems and pick strategy cards (on the first turn):

       Seat 4 - The Universities Of Jol-Nar - Speaker
       Seat 5 - The L1Z1X Mindnet
       Seat 6 - The Mentak Coalition
       Seat 1 - The Barony Of Letnev
       Seat 2 - The Emirates Of Hacan
       Seat 3 - The Yssaril Tribes



    "The Yssaril Tribes", you are the next to choose your seating, send me an e-mail with your choice of seating,

    or better yet, you can send this e-mail to all players so everyone will know what you chose
    and the next in order will do the same. This is to save time.
    To send this e-mail to everyone you can click the "E-Mail All Players and Moderator" Link on third row link bar.



    July 6th



    Ok, you will now choose your seatings, the order has been chosen randomly and it is:

      1. The Universities Of Jol-Nar (Speaker)
      2. The Yssaril Tribes
      3. The L1Z1X Mindnet
      4. The Emirates Of Hacan
      5. The Barony Of Letnev
      6. The Mentak Coalition


    You will choose your side of mecatol rex according to the following illustration:





    The first to choose is Sinnoch, please send me an e-mail with your choice of seating and I'll publish on this site.
    Send me the number of side of mecatol which you want your home system to be on.

    When you are done choosing seatings, you will build the map with the hexes you each got.



    July 5th



    I added the secret pages, i also sent all of you your passwords by e-mail.
    to access your secret page simple click on the secret page link (on the bottom link row) and enter the password sent to you by e-mail.



    Well, the votes are off, and the tie between "The Ancient Throne"
     and "The Star in the Crown" has been broken. the new scores are:

    - Ancient Throne
         - For - 5    Against - 1
    - The Star In The Crown
         - For - 1    Against - 5

    Therefore, the "Ancient Throne" variant will be used.



    Check out the "Player Status" page, all race sheets are completed.



    The next pre-game activity is setting all the public and secret objective cards, then building the map
    for looking at your secret objective, and your systems (to build the map with) you will have
    a secret page which you will get its password from me by e-mail.
    I will send each of you a personal e-mail with the password, although the secret pages aren't working yet.
    When the secret pages are up, i will inform it on the site and by e-mail.



    July 4th



    Two new race sheets added - Yssaril Tribes and Barony of Letnev.



    I added the second race sheet on the "Player Status" page - The Mentak Coalition.



    I added the first race sheet on the "Player Status" page - The Universities Of Jol-Nar
    Check it out, tell me if you see anything wrong or anything missing.



    Voting is over, the final results are as follows:

     - The Long War - Not Used
     - Leaders - Used
     - Distant Suns - Used
     - Sabotage Runs - Used
     - Age Of Empires - Used (Because Of "Ancient Throne"/"The Star In The Crown")
     - Homeworlds - Used
     - Ancient Throne - Tie
     - The Star In The Crown - Tie



    because we have a tie between "The Star In The Crown" and "The Ancient Throne",
    and because this is an important matter, i am asking anyone if he wants to change his vote
    about each of these. If so, send me an e-mail, If you don't want to change your mind about the vote
    send me a confirmation e-mail that your vote stays as is.

    Just to make sure you don't confuse between "The Star In The Crown" and "The Ancient Throne",
    "The Star In The Crown" decreases the ISC to give only 1 victory point,
    while "The Ancient Throne" sets a new primary action to the ISC card which is:

    Choose either a) or b)

    a) If you control Mecatol Rex, immediately gain 1 victory point.
    Also, regardless of your control of Mecatol Rex, during the upcoming Status Phase,
    you may qualify for any number of Public Objective Cards (but must still meet the individually stated requirements of each card).

    b) You may choose to execute the secondary ability of the Imperial Strategy Card (at no cost).
    No other player may execute this secondary ability this game round.

    If everyone will send me confirmation e-mails, or in other words,
    if no one changes his mind about the vote, i'll simply choose either
    "The Star In The Crown" or "The Ancient Throne" randomly.



    July 3rd



    I sent each of you an E-Mail list to there e-mail, check it out.
    Soon, i also published an E-mail List On the Site.
    Also check out the clarifications on optional rules ahead:

 

    Ok, Some Clarifications about the voting process:

    Any rule which most players voted "For" will be used in the game
    And not only the rule most voted "For".

    Also there seems to be alot of confusement abot the optional rules
    Using the "Age Of Empires" rule and that rule itself.

    So, if either "The Ancient Throne" rule or "The Star In The Crown" rule are mostly voted "For"
    then the "Age of Empires" Rule will also be used.

    if both of these rules are mostly voted "Against" then the "Age of Empires" rule variant
    will only be used if it was mostly voted "For"

    Since "The Ancient Throne" rule and "The Star In The Crown" rules cannot be used
    Don't vote "For" for both of them.

    In any case of tie in the matter of the optional rules, I will decide whether to use this rule or not.

    If these clarifications make one of you players change there mind
    in the matter of voting about optional rules, send me an e-mails with your voting changes.



    OK, first pre-game activity is the optional rule voting,
    Each of you, send me "For" or "Against" about each of the following optional rules:


    - The Long War
         - For - 2    Against - 4
    - Leaders
         - For - 6    Against - 0
    - Distant Suns
         - For - 4    Against - 2
    - Sabotage Runs
         - For - 4    Against - 2
    - Age Of Empires
         - For - 3    Against - 3
    - Homeworlds
         - For - 5    Against - 1
    - Ancient Throne
         - For - 3    Against - 3
    - The Star In The Crown
         - For - 3    Against - 3
