Subject: PBeM Excel sheets available

I have placed a sample of the Excel worksheets that I use for the Empress
Arianna FT Tournament on the Web page for the tournament. The URL for the page
is:

http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/6850/

The sheets are separated based on the turn number and use links from the
previous turn to transfer current position, course, and other information into
the current turn.

The sheets perform position, course, velocity computations for all ships,
fighter groups, and missiles in the game. Sensor, damage control, and combat
reports are generated by hand and added to the reports that are sent to each
side.

Please send me e-mail if you have any comments or questions.  These
sheets are the most complex that I had created with Excel and I was moving up
a learning curve in the process of generating them. I'm sure I can do a better
job on a second pass, so any useful ideas would be appreciated. One
enhancement would be the automatic construction of an ftmap file for input
into the map creation utility.
