Hello!

I am the creator of a relatively new PBEM game called Alliance.  Set in
the distant future, it is the story of a small band of planets struggling
against a powerful interstellar empire.  As the weaker neighboring worlds
fall to the empire's gargantuan fleets, the Alliance - officially the
Orion Arm Alliance of Planetary Republics - must face one of the most
powerful enemies it has ever known.

There is a lot more, however, to deal with.  The Alliance is struggling to
pull itself out of the aftermath of the Machine Wars, two bloody conflicts
in which more than 85% of the Alliance's population was annihilated...

The worlds...

Jabanica, home of the galaxy's most elite intellects.  The descendents of
the once powerful Ziron, the Jabanicans may bring to the Alliance its one
hope, that of technological superiority over the oppressive Olandarians.

Delpac, home of the impressive Delpaci.  While intellectually below the
galactic average, these proud warriors have a cunning in battle that few
have matched.

Earth.  Home of a race perpetually walking the line between power and
devastation.  The Alliance's second largest space force is based here.

Cohaleon.  Thousands of years ago, a small number of humans were abducted
by the Ziron and genetically altered.  They eventually came together on
this world, which gets its name from the Ziron word for United.

There is a lot more to look at if you come visit the Alliance Command
homepage (address below).

Where you fit in...

I am looking for two players.  One will be a starship commander, the other
either a pilot or a special forces team leader (to be determined by the
player).  The Alliance is at war with the Olandarians.

This game has been in existence since October of last year, but until the
middle of January it was in a trial phase.  Now most of the problems have
been worked out, we have successfully reached turn 4, and we are ready for
new players.

This game is free.  There is no software to download.  You do not have to
have access to the World Wide Web to play.  All you need is e-mail and
about an hour of spare time every week (a little more will allow you to
really get into the nitty gritty).
