  • PBEMs as a Spectator Sport

    Does everyone here read PBEMs they are not participating in directly? I used to do it regularly a couple months ago but stopped for some reason.

    Ya sure, a few, certainly not all of them. Only the ones were I really like a scenario, or I know some of the guys.

          Just the Age of War games, and the Colonies game at the Spanish forum.
          Unbelievable!

            I tend to follow games that use the same scenario as other PBEMs I'm in

                      Well . . .

                      I did follow all the games that used my scenarios.

                      At first.

                      Then there got to be so many of them . . .

                          I've been following the original Age of War and the Lebensraum- 1939 PBEM Test games. for a while i was reading the Raging Dragon one too, but it fell way down the list for a while and I stopped reading it.

                          Actually, the guys playing the AoW game let me do a little roleplaying when I replaced FMK's units with the correct ethinc units

                            I second that

                            I also have the occasional peak at the PBEM that have players in them that I am playing with in my PBEM's.

                            In general, it is fun to watch the PBEM's develop.
