November HW Friends' Game From: snake6283@aol.com (Snake6283) Date: Mon, 31 Jul 1995 00:00:00 +0000 Hello, I've been putting together friends games for every six months. I look for a balance between experienced players, looking for the extra challenge of a friends game, and inexperienced players who are willing to stick in the game and learn. From the postings I've seen, there are quite a few players out there who might enjoy on of these friends games. We tend to have more solid alliances, with better players, more likely to stay in the game. So the challenge is a lot greater. For example, in the most recent game, there are four game winners, three of which are bordering each other. In the November friends game, there are already three game winners, and the game isn't yet half full. Here is how I'll work it, should you choose to join. Firstly, choose your kingdom, with a backup choice. They will be given out on a first come, first served basis, with one exception. I have made a commitment to give a kingdom with naval troops to a friend who is out of town, and I'm unable to contact. He will get first choice of one of those kingdoms. Anyway, email your name, mailing address, and phone number, or, email your RSI account number (if your address with RSI is updated and you prefer privacy), to me. Also make a choice of three levels of privacy: none, phone privacy, or full privacy. Then, in late August, I'll have RSI send out the setups and order sheets for the first turn. Shortly thereafter I will email out the address and phone number list to those who chose the various levels of non privacy, allowing pregame diplomacy. The turns should arrive at my snail mail address by October 31st. Please enclose the turns in a separate, sealed envelope if concerned about the privacy of your first turn orders. I will send them all in to RSI and the game should start within one month. Thanks for your help. The open kingdoms are listed below.
