Game Setup and Hosting Topics

In a multi-player game, designate one person as the host. This person is in charge of generating turns and generally administering the game. A player can also act as host. The following steps apply whether the game is played on a single machine, over a network, by modem, email or a bulletin board service (BBS).

Finding Multi-Player Games on the Internet

If you want to join a multi-player game, or start your own, but can't find other players, visit either Home World Forum (English) or Forum Stars! (Polski) or Usenet Newsgroup: rec.games.computer.stars, Yahoo Group: starsgameplayers or Internet Relay Chat(IRC): #Stars! on irc.starlink.org
