I have some new ideas for some galaxies. First maybe you should add a turbo galaxy where the turns are like only 5 minutes long. Second if it is possible it would be nice if you could make a galaxy or apply to all galaxies the feature where the turn time changes as the turns progress. That way at the beggining you have like only 5 minutes to do what you need and near the end the turns can be like 30 or so. This would shorent the boring time and lengthin the exciting time. Just some ideads

It is possible, but image generation is ~ 1 minute for 60 players with ~ 2000 fleets. Turn execution time is ~ 2 - 10 sec.
So, minimum turn time is ~ 2 minutes. But it will require more time from players to play such galaxies.

Hmm, we use cron daemon to start turns, but I think it is theoretically possible. But how to determite HOW turn`s time must be changed during round?
What think other players?

I like the idea of a turbo galaxy. I've seen it in other games and its alot more intense. As for for the changing of turns in a galaxy. I would take all the players or the top 100 and average their scores. Whatever the averaged score is could be used to determine the turn length.

Also why not have a server with race battles. Like all Humans are allied, All Krong are allies, All Fagur are allied, and they fight each other to control the most of the galaxy before the last turn. the Mercenarys can just be mercs and do the normal stuff like piss people off.

We will add/open other galaxies as soon as more player will join. Currently we have barely enough players for 2 galaxies.

We tried, but with small results. The only working thing is to advertise by banners all over the web. But that needs money (as usual)

I did a search for web based strategy games on a search engine and could not find dq empires within the first 100 search results (I stoped after that). This may be the reason that not many people are playing, because they do not know it exists.
If it was made so the search engines could find it easier, more people may find this site.
