Remember the Stellar Wars tactical space game posted as a freeware wargame
last summer?  A PBeM game of a simultaneous movement variant is drawing to
a close.  Now we're organizing a second game.  The first game was played
initially by fourteen people divided up into two fleets, the Klingons and
the Terrans, with ships and fleets designed to meet point totals specified
by a referee.  I reffed the first game and one of us from the first game
will ref game 2.  Attrition has taken its toll on players as well as ships
so we'll have some room for new players.  Send me e-mail if you would like
to play.
 The game has a planned turn around rate of approximately a week for
each side to discuss plans and for captains to submit their orders.  Then it
usually takes up to a week for the ref to resolve movement, detection, and
combat and type up turn reports for each side.  These schedules have slid in
the past, so expect a turn approximately every two to three weeks.  A game
will probably last around eight to ten turns.
   There will probably be about a month spent getting fleets organized and
rules revised to deal with problems discovered in game one with moves starting
in late February or early March.
