Rules & Guidelines of Project Eclipse

Any rules of Project Eclipse will be located here. Breaking any of these rules is generally not a major offense, and a problem will only exist if a user persistently breaks the rules.

You may request special permission to create large interstellar nations or superweapons here: Talk:Requests for special permission

Rules

 * Large interstellar nations (200+ systems) must be approved by an Admin.
 * If a species has one major advantage over other species, give them a major flaw (hidden or not) to balance it out.
 * No superweapons (ability to destroy a planet or species) unless approved by an Admin.
 * If you want to use an element from another sci-fi universe, you may. But; always reference it. If you want to use Jedi, you can, but change the name, make some subtle changes. And add where you got that element from in a References section.
