After the Launch

Apparently some people think they can pull something behind our back. Our armed forces have increased their patrols in response to rumors that an invasion of our island is being prepared.
 
Now that some people have begun working on the Apollo Program I think it is time to start thinking about which leader to pick for the actual Planetfall game. Has anyone so far made a choice? I'm just curious.
 
I'm glad you brought this up Imp. Knoedel.

When I first considered a game like this I thought much about its gameplay but really had no idea of the setting so I really thank Mitchum for the game design, it really takes it above and beyond my original idea. I think its safe to say launching a Spaceship in this game is far more rare than a Conquest or Domination victory when played with Humans. I've never done it, in fact many of my games are desided in Eras before this and the Modern is basically a mystery to me.

Please it is very important to understand we cannot kill each other here but by all means do what you must to position yourself to get this unique leader in the next game. Having someone here that ragequits or whatever will be extremely difficult to find a player to replace them the circumstances are much different here.

I know some and maybe all of you would be happy with any of them but consider these leaders are much more linear, pointing strongly toward a particular style and you could very well enjoy playing a particular style that is very unique considering we are usually playing with Financial and Spiritual etc. Leaders and with that it might be a good idea to consider if any who would be a great leader to share in the struggles and the fortunes on this new world. But I wouldn't wait to get there to figure that out.

To get there players will see how far alone you are and may or may not like it. Concentrating on being the first to launch without the defense of sabotage is not wise and will you remember who attacked you and how hard they did. Will you trade them food on Chiron is you Nuked them back home?

There is much more to this than squeezing out bonus shields and employing hordes of specialist, you will need to know what to build and when based on what everyone else is doing. Let's say you build a nice Navy and build a SS part, I bet the next part won't be so easy.
And concentrating on Espionage of 6 other players while some players are using Counter-Espionage. Because we all are so close together the things that could happen in just one turn should be in your imagination right now.


If available I will pick the Peacekeepers, if not the Spartans
If I can not be Peaceful I will Laser Gun you down boooyyy!


Again Good Luck and Thanks for Playing!
