PHOENYX PBeM ROLEPLAYING ADDS NEW GAMES

CHROME:  When bodies from neighboring islands wash up on the artificial
  shores of Sea City, the residents want some answers.  And they can
  afford to hire the best - the island is a tax-free haven for some of
  the richest individuals in the world.  But even the best CHROME cyborg
  operatives aren't prepared for the deadly threat that overshadows not
  just this South Pacific paradise - but the entire planet.

CHROME is a SLUG roleplaying game (rules available online; they're
  only slightly longer than this message) run by Davis Nicolsen
  (davross@usa.net).

Verona Beach:  Welcome to Verona Beach, a sexy, violent other-world,
  neither future nor past, ruled by two rival families, the Montagues
  and the Capulets.  Wealthy, selfish, ruthless and powerful, the
  parents share an enmity that has become the birthright of their
  offspring.  Violence, murder, lust, love, poison, drugs... a myriad of
  politicians, clerics, lawmakers, swords for hire, swashbucklers,
  pirates, spies, thieves, mercenaries, and even lovers... yes, they all
  exist in the world of Verona Beach.

Now, one year after the tragic suicides of Romeo and Juliet which
  brought peace to Verona Beach, the vast majority of its citizens are
  finding that peace is a good way of life.

But not everyone wants to keep it that way....

Verona Beach is a freeform roleplaying game run by Mariann T.
  McDermott (deerskin@erols.com).

Master of the Desert Nomads:  Rumours abound that a large army has been
  gathered to the far west in the Great Waste.  Spies report massive
  armies gathering and although only the Republic of Darokin is
  immediately threatened, should they fall, the Duchy will be next and a
  general call to arms has been issued to march to the aid of the
  republic.  Drawn to the trouble brave adventurers find themselves
  crossing the scorching wastes of unknown deserts in a valiant attempt
  to prevent the known world falling under the evil of the mysterious
  "Master".

Master of the Desert Nomads is an Original Dungeons and Dragons game
  run by Liam Jones (liamj@iconz.co.nz).
