The game will be opening this afternoon for registration and being shortly there after.

We have changed it around some to make the game a bit more speedy, stock settings would take years to play.

Some of the notable features over Blacknova Traders are:
Planets have independent tech level of your ship, to increase the amount of colonists you need to upgrade your planet, to increase the amount of money on a planet you need to upgrade your planet.
You can purchase a cargo ship for your planet so that it trades for you while you are not logged in.
If your planet is under attack, you get an e-mail with who is attacking you.
Multiple ship classes with weaknesses and strengths, buy 1 or buy them all.
Team forums - you now have a message board in game to talk with your alliance instead of using messages (though messages are still there)
Bunch of other Team Functions, planets, ships, defenses etc.
Amount of money you can have in the bank is limited
Amount of money on 1 planet is limited
The universe will expand on it's own, it starts out with 3000 sectors, but will continue to expand.
Spies and dignitaries (read the FAQ for details on these http://www.fragonsight.com/aatrade/faq/index.php )
The list goes on and on, hope you all decided to play!

I plan on letting this game run, any changes needed will be made on the fly (another benefit) if you see any problems or things that are out of whack let me know. This game should be much more balanced!

Happy hunting!

Woot !!

Looking good from the beta test. Lots to do.

i dont like this part right here about this game....

8. Completely removed Planetary Interest and revised how planets can make money based upon the number of colonists devoted to making money. This is now keyed to starvation. If the planet has starving colonists they will stop making money.

increase the ammount of money you can put in the IGB bank! it sucks when you can only put 100billion in there, all after that you cant do anything with if you took it out of the bank..... you have to let it sit in there and gain interest, and you cant add in from an outside source, sotheres no point in trading....

Good point Dynamic, while I can't change the planetary interest I can up the bank, what would you like it do be?

Soul · 08-13-2006, 10:59 AM

I have up'd it to 1 trillion and changed tranfers down to every 4 hours

I see I got hit with a huge Federation Bounty while I was attacking Nobody (he was offline). I was able to attack and get a couple of my old sectors back, but any time I would scan another of his planets, I would get a saying that a Federation bounty would be put on me if I attacked him. Does this game limit the number of offline attacks that can be made on an enemy. Not complaining, just asking. Didn't see any information about that in the FAQ.

I need to look it over, but I believe it is based on attacking a player of x amount lesser value then you, or perhaps tech level, but I think it is value.

I don't think the Federation should put a bounty on you for attacking a player that attacked you first. If x player attacks you, regardless of his/your tech levels, you should be able to attack him back.
