Are there any players interested in playing in an amateur (but highly
polished) game based on Battlestar Galactica?

I'm looking for players who either:

(a) Are happy to play by snail mail but have e-mail for diplomacy, or
(b) Want to play the whole game by e-mail.

The only paper-based aspect would be the rulebook which details the game
system, turn construction and provide background on the Galactica mythos.
Other than that the whole thing can be played electronically. It is a
definite advantage if you have access to Word97 or a Word97 reader as this
is the standard used for constructing turn replies. Turn orders can be
submitted in almost any format.

The game involves six players who can play either Cylons or Colonials - the
mix determining the scenario that will be played. The game length is
finite - 20 turns - with deadlines of around 3 weeks and processing periods
of 7 - 10 days (to allow for queries, questions and late arrivals).

The game is based on the NXS4 modular rules engine reviewed in the January
edition of Flaship.

See the last edition of Flagship for some very positive Rumours on the Front
about NXS4.

If you're interested and would like further details, please e-mail me at

Thanks
