New: Viking Saga (free, open-ended, email, human, historical, rpg) From: lindahl@pbm.com (Greg Lindahl) Date: Tue, 20 Feb 2001 20:13:01 +0000 Name: Viking Saga Email: hvitakristr@hotmail.com Frequency: daily Type: historical fantasy URL: http://oghma.tripod.com/vikingsaga.html Costs: free EEmail: hvitakristr@hotmail.com Last-Update: 2001Jan06 Keywords: free, open-ended, email, human, historical, rpg Description: VikingSaga is a Play By e-Mail game set in the summer of 880ad. The Viking longship "Nidhogg" has sailed out of port from Jelling, Denmark, headed to take the North Sea by storm or by sword. The members of the crew each seek to enhance their own reputations, profits and experience, while acting upon agendas of their own. Vikingsaga operates on a minimum (!) 2-day response time to all posts. Any longer than that and the game would be too slow to bear. Adherence to historicity is solemnly attempted, though we recognise the impossibility of such a task. The aim of the game is to have fun, learn more and exchange knowledges about the setting (and earlier), and to keep the old fires alive on the time which once was, and will never be again.
