Quick and easy....
No Build Option.
You cannot repair, build any new ships.
You start off with a fleet of mixed ships, one of every kind or so.
Your job is to defeat your enemy to the last ship.
All other Sins and techs remain the same, you just cant get backup.
Each ship would be a huge loss.
Chess in Space.
Are you asking if it's possible, if someone can make it happen for you, proposing that you want to do it if there's enough interest, just planning on playing the idea out as a forum game, or what?
There was a mod a long time ago that created a deathmatch style gameplay. Called The Dome. Creator went MIA, but it had some promise for a deathmatch quick and dirty game.
Im sure it make a great base for a chess style also.
You can do it with a Galaxy map--no mod required.
You'll just need to give everyone a dead asteroid to start as a HW (or a player-owned pirate base if you don't mind them having a trickle of credits).
If you want them to be able to research, make a template for research facilities (or any other kind you like) there.
Create a template for each side's starting forces and apply it to their HW's.
Very easy to do.
I have a couple of maps where each side has no or only a tiny amount of credits and no colonizable worlds aside from dead asteroids or pirate bases. I give them full research facilities.
They start with a set amount of cash to buy their fleets and research but you can easily make it all dead asteroids, no cash and no research as well with only pre-assigned ships.
In these sort of set-ups, lost labs and factories can't be replaced.
To make it a mod, just eliminate the logistics slots at all planets and edit the HW templates. I can set it up with/for you if you like.
Sinperium,
Thanks for the offer I was just shooting shit, maybe give the Devs another game option for Rebellion.
