Re: WE WANT YOU FOR KING OF KINGS! From: Jens Niemann <niemann@ike.uni-stuttgart.de> Date: Fri, 20 Mar 1998 00:00:00 +0000 OH CHRIST! I just forgot to mention that King of Kings is a hobby game that is entirely FOR FREE. Sorry folks this is no SPAM. No company behind it, no commercial, advertising, whatsoever. Just for the fun. The idea of this message is to gather some people together to play! We are currently about 25 active KoK players and seek new 'flesh' for the forthcoming battles! copy of message follows THE "KING OF KINGS" PBEM GAME This is not a christian game. It may be changed into HARD OF THE HARDEST. It is a fantasy wargame with simple rules yet deep strategy. It is not a game for meeklings. In the official newspaper ANY player can insult ANYBODY else. This is to maintain a high adrenaline level and blood pressure of all participants. Well, don't worry, so far people prefer to submit good orders instead of wasting their time to speak publicly to others... What's this shitty talk? I wanna know what this game is like! KoK is similar to a variety of boardgames: Axis & Allies, Britannia and the like. You got a country and a tribe of warriors to expand your empire and subdue the weak. Any number of players can participate in one game, though current games run with 6 to 16 players. The next game to start is scheduled for 50 players, if enough manage to sign up. What is a PBeM anyways? Very short: In a Play-By-eMail-Game players make their game moves by sendign Emails to a game master who collects all moves and prercesses a game turn. Then, he sends the result to all players or posts them in a newsgroup or on a web page. In KoK the turn reports are currently only posted on a homepage. If you want to participate, do the following: A) Look at the King of Kings homepage or my games homepage B) Inspect the running games and rules and decide if it fits your interests C) Send a message containing "King" or "Kings" or "K22" as a subject D) Wait till enough players have gathered my games: http://wwwcip.rus.uni-stuttgart.de/~lrt10398/games.htm king of kings: http://wwwcip.rus.uni-stuttgart.de/~lrt13777/kings/kings.htm ------- -- Jens Niemann @}---}----- close your eyes, you can find all you need in your mind -----{---{@ (Dream Theater) Referenced By Up
