Title: Tradewars
Post by: Slayerik on September 14, 2010, 07:53:10 AM
Anyone interested in playing Tradewars? Been thinking of hosting a server with some friends and I say the more players the better. Who played back in the BBS days? Anyone want a nice light game to play at work?

I didn't play it much during the BBS days (I played LotRD), but I might give it a try.

Fuck yes, I can probably get a couple of people to join in as well, if you want.

I'd play MajorMud or Telearena again, but not TradeWars. It's a strictly worse Eve, and Eve is a strictly worse Excel. And yes, I understand the 2 games at the beginning of this post are strictly worse Vanguards.

The nice part about TW is that it is turn limited. I can play my turns at work and it doesn't affect my home time with the newborn twins :)

People that are interested, I'll be posting some info soon on clients and a server address and such. Also, any input on galaxy size and turns per day would be cool.

Schild, have you checked out greatermud.com? It's MajorMud remade with a new non-terrible engine. I guess the guy who made megamud is making a new client that supports it as well.

I don't actually want to play MajorMud. I just want a fresh server of it so I can be a thief, rush to level 10, get the Crystal Shortsword and start backstabbing.

I would definitely play some MajorMUD or Tele-Arena.
