New PBM game: Outpost [ free economic space game ] From: lindahl@rt.com (Greg Lindahl) Date: Fri, 17 Jan 1997 00:00:00 +0000 Name: Outpost [ free economic space game ] Type: Future Economic Duration: 15-17 Turns Frequency: One Turn per week Format: Email GM: Mixture of Human and Computer (computerizing more as time permits) Costs: Free Moderation Email: robert@platolabs.com Keyword: free, closed-ended, mixed, email, economic, space Last_Update: 1997Jan01 Description: Tim-Jim's Outpost game with a couple of minor changes to facilitate PBEM. For instance, items are sold by sealed bid rather than open auction. You will need to already know the rules to Outpost as it would be a copyright violation for me to send them to you. My players report they spend 15-30 minutes a turn (week) writing their moves. [ This is a new entry for the PBM List.
