[ I see people put something here, so I will to. Why do we do that?] I have never tried to post anything before so excuse any errors. I have been interested in the various play-by-mail games on the market and mentioned in the net. I wonder if someone would answer a few questions for me. 1) What are the mechanics of the games like? Is there a limit to the types of things you can do? How do you handle "If this happens then . . . " situations? 2) How do players communicate with each other, through a games-master or directly? 3) Can anyone recomend a good pbm for an experienced gamer but a novice to pbm? Thats also cheap?
