(2) Starting forces and setup

[Garfunkel (OP)]

Hey, so since 1.9.1 will fix the vanishing GU bug, I've decided to wait for that. It seems that 1.9.0 is otherwise in a really good place so with that one issue solved - hopefully before the weekend - this campaign will finally start for real.

I wish i had the attention span to do something as awsome as this.

This is a really cool setup. I look forward to following it (personally rooting for Rim Pact).

I'm also curious about the slow build-up. When I play I usually go straight for Jump Point Theory to get exploring as soon as possible and build lots of Research Facilities to reach the higher techs, but there is something really appealing about going slow - if you have the 'fiction' to keep it interesting.

I've compiled a couple lists here, if you're interested: http://aurora2.pentarch.org/index.php?topic=10472.msg130729#msg130729

Do note that it is compiled from the most current Danish names in 2019, so for your time period there might be some names that would be far less likely to be found in Denmark then compared to today due to immigration since the 1960's.
