Subject: PBeM: Nimrod Station
I'm preparing a PBeM FT game to begin in 2-3 weeks. It is not set in the familiar FT universe, nor does it use standard FT/MT designs. It will be played using real thrust-like rules, and variant fire con rules to represent a small fighter engagement (small 1 man fighter is about MASS 20). There will be limited knowledge and not all players begin on the board. Secret victory conditions also apply. Other scenarios will follow set in the same universe with the same limited knowledge. There is room in this scenario for 8 players, split 4, 3, and 1. Any number may lurk, but only on one side of the battle, and this will constrain you as a player in future battles in this universe. As is my wont, the referees of the last games I played in are each guaranteed a spot in this game if they want it. If they chooses not to exercise this priviledge, the offer stands for my next game. I expect this game to fill up quickly, just because every game fills up quickly.
