Found a copy of GDW's strategic game Imperial. Anyone else have it? If so, care to try PBeM?

VMAP? I'm in. All of a sudden there's four of us. And does everyone have the FT-Imperium notes ? Look at http://ccwf.cc.utexas.edu/~jwlyon/FT/imperium/imperium.htm nad root around in http://ccwf.cc.utexas.edu/~jwlyon/FT/imperium/ I have yet to see an index in that directory, but it's all fairly cool. I've only played my copy of Imperium once, but enjoyed it. It's a very interesting game of nodal strategy. The economic system keeps it from being as bad as Starfire is (fortify all strategic warppoints to make assault suicidal) with the strategic chokepoints in node structured movement. And it looks to me as if the campaign will be where this game becomes the most entertaining. > At 11:35 PM -0700 4/17/99, Keith Watt wrote:

Well actually, Imperium's really hard to do more than two players and I'm going to be starting a Battlefleet Mars PBeM pretty soon, so I'd really better not start this one. You guys are welcome to the tileset though. I'm expecting permission to be able to distribute on the web Real Soon Now.. TTYL..

Want to make it 5? BTW Mike, I am just outside of the bay area if you want to try FTF Imperium. Michael Brown [quoted original message omitted]

FTF is a possibility, limited by my utter lack of transportation. As for email, I've got three email games right now (one unmoderated, which is providing LOTS of inspiration for pbem utilities) so taking on a fourth would be unreasonable for the time being. Still, its something to do later. > At 7:35 PM -0700 4/19/99, Michael Brown wrote:
