No new PBEM's recently, are there?

[Valuk]

Is there no one left who wants to play?
Come on!

[yop73]

I want to play, just pick a scenario, start a thread which says: " PBEM, please join" and the see who joins.
But you need to descide on a scenario first.

I'm up for a PBEM: Age of War perhaps?

[St Leo]

I expect at least four new PBEMs after the results of the Fourth Scenario Design Contest are announced (sometime in January?).

[Choke]

I want to play Age of War...I made a version with no RRs which needs playtesting. Of course this would require Exile's approval so everyone bug him . I think RRs make the game unrealistic so I made this version which is (I think) an improvement on an already great scenario.

[Darius871]

Why don't you make an "ATTN Exile" thread, and debate about it? Not like I'm going to actually PM him about it

[The ANZAC]

Choke: instead of RRs did you replace with "suburbs" or something of the sort?

[Case]

Hey ANZAC, what do you want to seceed from?

[The ANZAC]

Well, it's John C. Calhoun as my avatar, so the US
I have my own blog spot too: http://theanzac.blogspot.com

Hopefully this is just a phase

Anzac, on some tiles there is industry, it looks the same as the roads but it simulates the superior industrial might of the more advanced powers, Germany and Britain have lots, France less, Italy less, Spain has I think 1 tile with it and the rest have none. Also I tried to make sure it isn't useful to transport troops, it's just there for production and can be pillaged.

I took away a lot of roads from the poorer countries to simulate their poorness and to make it harder for them to move, they need to spend time making roads before they can move troops easily. Also I increased the road movement to 8 so that troops can be moved quickly, just not infinitely and also so that you CAN move a few spaces and attack but like real life if troops march for weeks then attack they won't be at the height of readyness or enthuseasm.

[The ANZAC]

but are there RRs around cities to simulate suburbs? I'm guessing not, but you never know...

[Choke]

oh, well yeah you could say that, they are around the rich country's cities.

[0hwell]

I think that makes the weaker countries too tedious to play.

[Choke]

No, they can do stuff, it's not that they have NO roads, just less of them, like they aren't on every tile and they sort of twist around so it takes longer to get places, there's also rivers which are important especially in Russia. Only Turkey would be tedious, the other countries are similar to usual.

Oh my word. Indeed.
