I need a game recommendation From: Fnord <no@no.no> Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2004 02:19:05 +0000 Hi. I'm going to be travelling a lot for work and was hoping someone could recommend a good PBEM game. Here's my criteria, from most important to least important: 1) Not a role playing game. I'm not that creative. 2) Something that isn't too hugely complicated, where someone can play in 15 seconds to 15 minutes per day. 3) Military, space, strategy, whatever, just not fantasy sports or checkers or that type of thing. 4) Preferably free if possible, or if not, at least something with a one-time purchase price, not a monthly subscription fee. I've played Diplomacy, and that's always an option again, but it always took me so long to compose press to the other players that I'd spend an hour or more a day on the game. I found www.exoduswar.net, which is kind of an interesting idea, but not quite interesting enough to make it worth $5.95 per month. Most of the other games I've found are RPGs. Any other suggestions? Thanks. That Exodus War game sort of reminded me of the old flip-book game Ace of Aces. It seems like that could be the basis for a really cool PBEM game. Has anyone ever seen anything like that?
