I got -zero- response when I posted this about two weeks
ago.  I'm giving it another shot.  Hopefully there's someone
out there who isn't too busy playing the 2950 version of the
game to join us.  Well, here's the pitch again:

---------------------------

Howdy!

I've putting together a grudge match team to play the Dark Servants
in MEPBM ca. 1650.  From my local circle of friends and gaming
acquaintances I have managed to accumulate 9 players commited to
spreading the Shadow of Mordor throughout the lands of Middle Earth.

I'm looking for a tenth with internet access.

The team as it is now consists of 3 veteran MEPBM players [myself included]
who have a few [not hordes] of games under our belts, including one victory
as the Haradwaith.  Of the other six, two are diehard gaming grognards who
have dissected MEPBM night after night for months and are champing at the
bit to actually PLAY.  Another is a gamer who I have confidence in,
although he isn't as mad about it as my grognard friends.  The other three
I haven't met, but will be under the guidence of either a veteran or a
grognard [two are brothers of friends of mine, the other is a phd candidate
in poly-sci who wrote his disseratation on political simulations].

I'm hoping to recruit another veteran MEPBM player.  I've been looking at
the DS strategy as consisting of 3 or 4 cabals of nations working closely
together, and it would really help to have another experienced player to
help guide the newer players so that they can avoid some of the rules
potholes and don't waste their time and energy on some quixotic pursuit
that is tangential to victory.

Most of the players are going to have net access as well, so coordination
should be fairly close.
