Maybe it is possible to host Tech Wars on an ENT-bot? Tech Wars:BC i think this is the mostly balanced map. Tech Wars Prog. is also nice but not so balanced xD

It is really a nice game and maybe it is more played on ent bot?!

Please post a link to the map and include what you think the slot layout should be, and how many players to wait until autostarting.

TechwarsBCv1.41b.w3x
Tech Wars Boreal Conflict.
(1.39 MiB) Downloaded 38 times

i think this the "newest" version. Maybe there is a newer one but i cannot find website...
it is a 3vs3 map. and should be played as 3vs3. it should be played by 6 players.
But it could be played also as 2vs2 or 1vs1. i am not sure about colours and position of players ingame - should be tested!
there different modes - for example only infantry troops, only tanks+flying and normal game with all. the infantry mode is really nice because more possibilities than for tanks or flyings. and there is a "control"point system for income + factories to conquer for food. it is like Civilization wars.

It's easier to learn for sure. ^^
But maybe not a game i would play as often as Civ Wars which goes much mroe into detail and can be played in more than one way.

completely false. hard core pro games are fucking nice xD so nice like civ wars. and tech wars has a bit more details and more more units.
infantry could be upped to several types. (heavy troops(flamers, rocket troops ...), machine gunner, sniper and healer) so it could be more fun ^^
civ wars always same strat. -> add docks top as mid. add bot camps ^^ boring xD only wondermid could be possible but not very effective !!

In Civ Wars researching technologies and raising income is essential in almost all modes while Tech wars is just about fighting of what i saw... feel free to prove me wrong.

No offense, but this is something a typical noob would say. There is a lot more to civ wars than meets the eye.
Tech wars is a limited game, fun for a short while, but limited.

Forum ads, donations, and out of uakf.b's pocket I think.

If you'd like to donate, check out this link!

i thought "selfhosting". but then you have also much "indirect" servercosts, elektricity etc.

May i make a suggestion?

The currenly hosted version is 1.41. But I think the latest version is 1.42b. Can you switch the version to the later one?

http://www.epicwar.com/maps/133065/

Also, with this map, is it possible to allow votestarting with only 2 players? Given the low frequency of people who join it could help. :)

I'm not sure if being banned for leaving early is enabled for this map (haven't been banned or seen anyone banned), but if it is, could I recommend disabling it for ENT88? Due to the game's nature it won't make much sense.

Oh, one last thing. Can you add Boreal Conflict to Clan.Enterprise for private hosting? It's currently not on the list.
