Codebase stellaris team deathmatch
#1
Some people have expressed interest in this before and the new years are coming up so let's do it.

The basis is simple, a max size stellaris game with no npcs (maybe fallen empires) and teams based on codebase. It'll be a marathon game all played at once some time around new years. Plan to stay at least 4 hours and the game will probably go longer.

In order to try and figure out teams before the game: http://www.strawpoll.me/14622946
These will certainly be concentrated down to less with names based on the larger represented groups.

In the case of dropouts people from the same codebase would be accepted as replacements. Preference is given to the original player.

Schedule:
Times you're available: http://www.strawpoll.me/14623110
Dates you're available: http://www.strawpoll.me/14622999
All dates are around the new year weekend, the time and date will be chosen based on the polls one week from now.

Game setup:
Galaxy Size: Huge
Galaxy Shape: ???
AI Empires: 0
Fallen Empires: ???
Primitive Civilizations: ???
Crisis Strength: 5x (It's a game full of players, what else)
FTL Method: Hyperdrive (It's the only tactically balanced choice)

Mods:
Mostly vanilla with possibly minor content/QoL, up to debate.
Collection will be posted here after some discussion.

wait, it takes me like a month to finish a game of stellaris in a smaller galaxy, how is this possible to be marathon'd.

Is there some way around the lag I don't know about or are you people gods of internet

What's the policy on Determinated Exterminaters, Devouring Swarms, Fanatic Purifiers, what DLCs will be there?

If we're all on the same team, then wouldn't DE, DS, and FP be a bit OP?

All DLCs should be present. It's not OP if the other team has the same thing.

The main issue with any swarm archetype is diplomacy. This game won't have much diplomacy, since it's only between opposing teams of players. Since the main balancing mechanism of those archetypes is that everyone is ganging up on them because they're Bad Dudes and bad at diplomacy, they'd be overpowered when that's not an issue.

It seems the best time available for people is 8pm EST December 30th or January 1st

Anyone unable to make it to either of these feel free to say so and if there's enough of a problem with it being around new year we'll move it a week forward.

Yeah I can't make it new year's, but if I'm the only one ignore me.

Ok, talked with ninja and we're making it on the 30th. Some splitting and joining of teams will probably happen to ensure everything is balanced.

Anyone who wants to join https://discord.gg/yEEA64E (It'll be deleted after the game is done, we just want to be able to have private voice chats if people want it)
