Description:

EL CONQUISTADOR is a historical roleplaying game, situated in the 16th
century in the spanish reign under Phillip II. It�s a postal mail game and
is published in german. It exists for 6 1/2 years and there are about 25
players today, but we are always looking for players to enlarge our group.
This is how it works:
You have 3 weeks to plan you turn and send it back to the GM, than you
have to wait about 4 weeks and recieve a 30-60 pages large book where all
the actions of the past month is described. As you noticed, this game is a
postal game, and not played by email. In general it would be possible to
play it by email, but in most of the existing email games, you only
recieve your updated character-sheet, and that�s it. We know that our way
is the one which takes longer an is more complicated and expensive, but
therefore every player has the possibility to develope his or her
character. So the game gets away from the standard play-by-mail games and
becomes a roleplaying game!
