Hi Everyone,
As the system can easily handle multiple games at once, the main reason we aren't doing that is such that I may track the errors and bugs more closely. That said, Game 4 is starting to wind down; I'd give it 5-6 more turns at most.
As such, I'm using this thread to announce the 5th Alpha Test game. Unlike last time, I'll start a new thread when the game itself begins.
As always, anyone is welcome to play, but understand the following things:
If I haven't chased you away yet, Welcome Tester!

As always, anyone is welcome to play, but understand the following things:
- The game is still in development. There are bugs.
- You are not obligated to help bug hunt, but it helps. That said, just being in the game helps!
- Don't make suggestions for improvement for now; only point out bugs and or cases where the behaviour is different than the manual.
- Be moderately aware of the progress of WCTOO, you can do this by reading through this forum!
- The new 'Basic' Pilot Skill System
- Tailing (still very buggy)
- Missile Evasion (mostly good)
- EDIT: Large maps! (This will be our first map that takes a lot of scrolling to play)
If I haven't chased you away yet, Welcome Tester!
To join Alpha Game 5, you must do the following things:
- Go to the Phase 5 Game Site and make an account if you don't already have one.
- Post here that you are going to play and declare your ship choices!
- Everyone gets 3 ships.
- Each ship must be from a different category: (light/medium/heavy fighter, bomber)
- You can mix confed/kilrathi ships, but realize the FF's IFF recognition is by race, not team. (In fact, teams don't exist)
- I will be "randomly" assigning a different skill level to each of your ships. Some of you will be stuck with a 'Green' ship, some with an Elite, and a lucky person is getting a 'Legendary' ship. The rest will be spread so that everyone will have at least one Regular/Vetaran.
- Post the Ship's Callsign and its Pilot's Name (this can be your username, but doesn't have to be).
