Weekend Update
General stuff
- Good to see players working hard to get their internal organization planned.
- We are still on schedule. I might send the offical packets out Monday or Tuesday as players have a lot of choices to make.
Reminders!-If factories or shipyards are without orders, they will be
inactive.-Research labs that are unused will be given a
Admin choice on what to research (so it doesn't stop the auto turns). If the admin has to choose what you research,
more useless the better. -The turn will go until Auto turns stops due to one of the teams events happening, then everyone will be updated. So plan your orders accordingly. So if you want to make a PR blast for being to Luna, make sure your you tell me that the task force at Luna ends it orders at Luna so the auto-turn stops.
-If you want to stop on a set date, let me know, and I will do my best to make it happen. I cannot promise that it will happen due to to how Aurora runs.
Game Notes-Early turns might last a few months as people are researching and do not have any units to do stuff.
-If we are close to the end of the year and I think the next turn will go into the next year, I may go ahead and do the end of year off screen checks. Or I may stop it at Jan 1, or I might let it go to Jan 10th. I will need some flexibility on that.
- I am the admin, but Aurora gives you a lot of freedom. If teams ask me to do something in game, I might have to ask the team how it done in Aurora. I can promise that I will be a fair referee and work hard to make this a fun game for all. I cannot promise that I know every way to play Aurora. I will make test games to test stuff to make sure I understand what you are asking me to do.
- I do ask that teams be reasonable in Admin requests and be considerate of other players. If your idea requires in a non-combat role a stoppage every game-day to tweak something, consider giving me standing orders.
-Feel free to rename officers or military units
Janes Information Service- I am keeping information filed with information filed as Public, FSA Intel, and Admin information. I am doing this so I am sure I am making FSA choices based solely on information that is public and/or FSA intel. Since I had a public file, I felt it would help the game if we had it online so that everyone can see it and it can be a reference to all. I hope it is useful. I do ask that people submit information in the the other thread so that the main thread can remain uncluttered.
Grammar/typos/ClarityI was never a English major. I will make errors in my writing. I am sure that errors exist in this post. Feel free to ask for clarification if I post something that is not understandable.
