Avalon ? and more :) From: an14596@anon.penet.fi (Vinnie) Date: Mon, 01 Mar 1993 23:30:15 +0000 Hi Pbem'ers ! First I'm doing this 'anonymous' because I can't post anotherway.. I've no acces to this newsgroup :( I read it with a telnet adress and try to post it this way.... Praying this works..already tried many a time posting to this newsgroup without succes :( well: Subjects: AVALON ...anybody knows it? PB(E)M games on the net to play along or sources up for grab ? and more questions :) Well i have a few questions: I'm from holland and recently started playing pbm's at the pbm express with a few friends. I've reafd this newsgroup for a couple of times and already saw a few games I knew by name. (for example the PBM express also runs Legends and I've seen some of it.. it looks nice but the cost is somewhat high and varies ...still not sure if I'm gonna play it :) At the moment I'm playing AVALON. Not the legend game but just plain AVALON. I haven't heard about that game on this group yet I'm very new to the game so I really could use some help so if there's somebody out there who knows the game please let me hear !!! Avalon is a fantasy strategic war game. There are 100 players and some 500 provinces I guess. Everybody owns one and then starts exploring and building. There's also some magic & more stuff involved. It looks quite fun though the problem is this is game 9 already and it seems there are some quite experienced players around :(.. So if anybody has some info about this game or knows anybody who's playing ot please drop me a line (adress below!) The best thing in the game is that you really need to explore the place trying to find out where you are...find friends etc... ***** playing on the net ? Well playing those games is quite expensive so I'd really like to play something like this on the net.... Is there anybody around who still needs players (I'm not interested in AD&D pbem's right now... I'm already into that stuff...currently playing in one and DM'ing an other :) i'm interested in any strategic game space or fantasy or anything else interesting. Are there any sources lying around at ftp sites which could be played or maybe used to build an own game ? I've a lot of friends who would like to start a game running... We're also busy making a fantasy wargame PBEM ourselves (and there are some very good programmers involved so this is promising !!! I'll let you know more about this soon as we'll need testplayers :) NO not now Yet :)...If there are people from holland around here please drop me a line though We already do have VGA planets but i find that game far too unbalancing.. Well the share-public-6th level game that is..does it get better after that btw ??? BTW how do we pay this guy some $$$ ??? transferring money internationally is very costly..they charge +- $8and more a transfer !!! Is there somekinda file somewhere with all the info on Legends ?,, did someone made something like that ???? I'm deeply interested because if i do decide to play the game i surely could use some help :) Thanx for your time and hope to see you again no I'm not anonymous :) Please reply to gta@bouw.tno.nl or v892079@si.hhs.nl Cya, Vinnie ------------------------------------------------------------------------- To find out more about the anon service, send mail to help@anon.penet.fi.
