Ohh, what a shame :-(

Can anyone recommend a wargame of the same style (ww2) and complexity (very
complex)?

We are a few friends and would like a game with a lot of ww2 athmosphere. A
few of us have played Victory! before and therefore this was the natural
choice, but any other good game will do.

I was a very active PBMer 10 years ago or so (Victory!, WW4, Hoplite
Encounter, All the KJC games, Quest of the Great Jewel (great game!!!),
etc.) and I really enjoyed it. I fear, that pbm is not what it was at the
time. Most likely it is now PBEM (wich is ok for us). What is the pbm
community like now, and where are they at?

If anyone needs a danish PBM I can really recommend a game called the "Det
Galliske Opr�r". It is run by Pretorius Games. They do not have a English
version, I am afraid, and the gamemaster is not into the "new" tech, but if
you canread danish (norwegians, swedes) it is a very good middle complexity
napolion-era pbm. If you need more info you can get to me at
pbm@hotmail.com.
And no, I do not have any economic ties with this company :-)

Take Care
