turns out it's "Not play" because the font size and color scheme is frying my brain. I really hope Steve does something about it soon.

Apparently the answer is "Not sleep" for me as it just got released: I have yet to go to bed and it's 7 am for me.  Good thing it's the weekend (though if it weren't I'd have gone to bed rather than check the site and see Steve make a new Installation topic).

I'll probably make a few custom naming theme with my conlang and then use that as a setting.

My first play through will be a 2100 Conventional+ start (SM added TN tech and nothing else) with a post-WW3 world where China defeats the US in a naval fight in 2021 and gets expansionistic, ends up in a three way war with the Russian Federation and India which turns into general nuclear exchange in 2050.    Pandemic and nuclear winter causes huge die off of population world wide and survivors unify under a European/Japanese led Federation with former North American states as junior partners.    TN theory is discovered in Stockholm and the newly formed United Earth Federation seems to go off world. 

So the Nobel committee saves the human race?  I like it. 

I like that setup.   Not that implausible too!  ;D

I'm doing an East vs West game set in 2034 where the world is in recovery from a much worse version of our current virus that wiped 1/3 of the planet. 

Most of Africa and most of Asia vs the America's, Europe, Oceania, and a splattering of other countries.  This gives about a 3. 0B to 2. 4B split respectively.  Hopefully all goes well and I get a good test of early game tech, ground combat, and some moderate pressure to push out of Sol.

I think my first game will be very plain. One, maybe two NPRs from the get go (not starting in the same system) with a very low chance to generate new ones. 300 systems max to keep the universe at a reasonable size.

Does someone plan to stream his first ours with C# for lightweights like me to learn a few tricks?:)

I actually have been thinking about doing that for a while. But the lack of "graphics" didn't really appeal stream wise  :P
