I am sending this out to weed out who still wantes to be on the list or if I have missed someone. Geoff and I have both been add and deleting people from the lists, I have changed to his newest list and also tried to remove those addresses I had in the log. If you are on this list and do not want to be: Email majordomo@ee.pdx.edu with the message 'unsubscribe atl-players' I am working on a info blurb for the list, but It needs a lot help. Feel free to email majordomo@ee.pdx.edu with the message 'info atl-players' and then email me with ideas If you want to see all the majordomo commands, email majordomo@ee.pdx.edu (See a pattern? :_) ) with the word 'help' as a body of the message. Anything else I should say? Geoff stated he will change the list he has to point to this one. so you do not have to learn the new address right away, but it would be helpful to change over as soon as you can. If I remember how to send times, I will post a better version of this. I am also thinking about adding a few files that you can access through the server. Possibly the rules, getting started and a FAQ (If I can find it). Any other ideas? Basically, Im at an impass as to what to do next and would like some ideas.

Since the game is closed, why don't you announce in rec.games.pbm that if anybody wants a faction in atlantis, e-mail you. It would solve all your problems and help someone who needs the faction more. ---------------------------------------------------------- Date: Wed, 19 Jul 1995 10:41:47 +1000 (EST) From: Christopher Dowling <cjd@dce.vic.gov.au> Subject: Atlantis Mage training Is there anyone available for training in Magic at Level 3 in any area, Let me know which area and what cost Chris ---------------------------------------------------------- From: Greg Chaix <gchaix@ednet1.osl.or.gov> Subject: Atlantis: Mind training in AC?

Wilson" <M.L.Wilson@newcastle.ac.uk> Subject: Gate Cities. Greetings all. I was recently contacted by a faction wishing a move from AC to the city of Sinan. With a mighty leap of intuition, I fathomed from this request that Sinan (13,5) has become a Gate City from AC. However, I would dearly like to be wrong, so someone please tell me I am. If I am right, though, it is only fair to warn any who think of Travelling to Sinan will be unfortunate people. The Nyx Alliance has been based in and around the area for 2 Years, and have deployed a vast amount of troops in and around it. These troops will prevent anyone leaving the City.

I'm a little concerned because (I think) all of the email I am getting is coming from the old list, and I am not getting anywhere near the volume that I have gotten in previous weeks. I also know for a fact that one of my allies is not receiving postings from either list. Am I just being paranoid, or is there some problem?

Since only a few of the >sentries had rudimentary military training, the combat was short > and bloody. Soon there was only attackers left. The word spread quickly >to the DOMINION headquarters and the DOMINION warlords started to make >plans for revenge. >Surtur and his bastard brother, BEWARE THE DOMINION WRATH!!!! As representives of the DOMINION, we would like to formally state that we havenever heard of 'Surtur and his warriors'. We do not 'fall upon people' - they seem to fall upon us, but generally they seem to die quite effectively when this happens. We have avoided conflict by guarding our territory - we only kill people on our claimed hexes, and very few people have tried to enter our areas without negotiating with us. We have never taken a hex from another alliance, nor have weadvanced into guarded hexes yet. Keep an eye on the land claims list - one or two more going in this week. Our advice to other factions is that the areas around Spakker, Yakleks, and Oranmore are almost exclusively occupied by the troops of the IUN, The Confederation, and the DOMINION. None of these alliances are currently at war with each other, so the region is peaceful at the moment. If either Surtur or the person who wrote the times article, or anyone else, would like to discuss this with the DOMINION, they can contact us via the address below. our kind regards, Lord Viper and Lady Venom. House Banshee (217) of the DOMINION.
