This is a closed game for some friends of mine that I wanna reconnect with. We’ll be playing the prophecy of kings expansion (trust me it makes the game better and faster) and a ‘milty draft’ (which is a kind of way of setting iup the map, turn order and faction). I dunno about one post every two days? I’ll start adding people as they join the thread .

To launch a new game, please run the command /game create_game_button, filling in the players and fun game name. This will create a button that you may press to launch the game after confirming the members are correct.

you again?

Okay I’m gonna try to pester the others. In the meantime while I said we’d play base game+pok there’s a fan developed one called discordant stars with fan developed factions. Pros: you can only play it on discord, and it’ll put you on a more even playing field with me since I’ll come in learning how they work for the most part too. Cons, it’s not actually the official board game Twilight imperium, and I’m of two minds of how good of a teaching tool it is. Any preferences?

I'd kind of like to learn the official game first

i do not have a strong opinion about it, but knowing how its 'supposed' to be is likely not a bad place to start

@south pendant @outer panther if you get a chance confirm sometime this weekend then I can launch the draft.

Meanwhile I’m putting up a faction guide for the game. Your faction is something you’ll draft and is the alien (or hooman) that will affect your playstyle.

"The Twilight Wars continued for centuries, but no race was powerful enough to seize the throne and risk suffering a similar fate as the Emperor. Slowly, the strength of great civilizations failed...

Confirm?

Never played before, but the Ghosts of Creuss (love a good Vorlon parallel), Aborec (mmm planty), and Federation of Sol all seem fun. As do several others.

yeah i'll have to review the options later

Alright animal people I can launch a game. It’ll be a 8/8/6 draft with eight random factions/ eight random starting positions/ and then position on the map from speaker to last slice. Remember position indicates what strategy card you take not who goes first:

#

<@&1166011604488425482> um. This is my first time doing this too without just linking to the milty website. How do I do 8/8/6 draft with POK.

I'm not sure exactly how that works. I think if you do a create game button as normal then a /milty start it will begin a draft and then there will be buttons maybe to do 8/8/6?

yep that's it
