This message contains information on a new commercial Play-by-Mail game
  simulating the sport (and the industry) of Professional Hockey. If you
  are not interested or do not want to read commercial material, hit 'n'
  now.

The World Electronic Hockey League/Ligue Mondiale de Hockey Simule is a PBM
  game of hockey. Players are the owners, general managers and head coaches
  of a franchise in a 36-team simulated league.

Each team plays a 40-game schedule (all games are simulated on a custom-made
  software system) and playoffs. Each player creates his own team from a
  pool of abstract resources. The WeHL does not use or reflect the results
  of any real-life pro hockey league: this is purely a simulation.

Players can determine their team's strategy for each of the 40 games, train
  their Virtual Players, make trades, publish Press, ... They also receive
  detailed accounts of all of their games, scouting reports on their
  upcoming oppoennts, ...

Turnaround times vary between 2 and 4 weeks, depending on the individual
  league.

The WeHL was playtested on the Net for two full seasons.

The WeHL is available in English and French. I am the author of that game.

For more info, a rulebook and a copy of the startup package, send your name
  adress and a check or money order for 3$ CANADIAN to:
