I am replying on list because the answer could be of interest for a number of
members.. I am a firm fan of a PBem aid called cyberboard.. It's possibilities
are infinite for any table top or board game. No orders are necassary because
the program preplots the move before posting to the opponent.. I have used it
several times now.. I know of FT, Epic and DBM versions of table top games and
there are a huge number of board game boxes available.. I have personally
designed a campaign gamebox for BFG.. a gamebox of Victory games 1809 and the
SoA game legion.. Of all the mapping aid it is by far the most versatile,
matched perhaps only by ADCII. cyberboard does however have the advantage of
being freeware and widely supported.. If you are interested check out Dale
Larsons page at
http://www.execpc.com/~d-larson/cyberboard.html
There is a mail group that is also inhabited like this group by some
remarkably nice and very helpful members..

gameboxes can be found at Chris Fawcetts

and Walt O'Haras

On a personal note I intend to work on a dirtside box for cyberboard.. VERY
IMPORTANT the game box would include table top, play pieces, counters and die
roller. chit picking would be done by using a supplementary on screen
program...   Rules are not included in the box..  (No worries on that
front Jon!!) The policy of cyberboard users is that in order to play the games
you must show proof of ownership of a game before receiving a copy.. Hell the
game box designer payed for his copy so it's reasonable to expect the user to
have done the same before getting the gamebox for free.....heheheheh
