I was wondering if anyone out there in net.land would be interested in a play-by-mail sf-semi-role-playing game. I don't really want to post a set of rules until I see what (if any) response I get. The general idea would be this: 1) Each player starts out as the "ruler" of a planet with a population of 35 million. 2) The idea is to explore the galaxy, colonize planets, and blast the *$#$@ out of the other players when they "drop in for a visit" on your planets. 3) Combat would be resolved by the GM (me), and detailed results posted to all players involved. I had in mind maybe a 80 or so turn game...longer than that if people wanted to continue. Let me know if you're interested, either by mail or by posting to net.games (for lack of a better newsgroup).
