  • Classic - Based on differences in planet count between empires
  • Modern - Based on differences in networth and planet count between empires and their families
  • Hardcore - Attacks do not cost morale

I vaguely recall a king of the hill game where the galaxy was two fams against eachother in a symmetrical map. Why not mix it up? The same 40 people have been playing this game for decades I’m sure you’ve had enough normal rounds?

Just a thought :slight_smile:

I need to test the KoH mode and fix a few things there, but that could indeed be a good 5th galaxy.
