It will be based in part on several RPG's which I have participated in. The game will hopefully begin in early 2001, and continue indefinatley. The game as the name suggests will be based on space exploration. Each player will control a single GUILD, which is similar to a faction, each having thier own beliefs, and systems of government. Before you continue, I wish to infrom you that the GameMaster (a.k.a. Story Teller), will not require turns to be in character, this will be further explained in the rules. The GameMaster will have his hands full dealing with turns from upto 14 players, and NPC's. This and keeping up with the website will make the role-playing the responsiblity of the players, and will be handled through Diplomacy. Which will be accomplished via an offsite message board, as well as ICQ. Right now I need one thing. People to read through my rules, and help me find any areas which need more explanation/simplification. I am currently making a player list, those who submit helpful information WILL get priority [ This is a new entry for the PBM List. You can find the list itself, and instructions for adding games or comments, at http://www.pbm.com/~lindahl/pbm_list/ -- greg ] Up
