SFCONSIM-L is up and running!!

Status: RO

Apologies in advance for the multi-list post, but I think many people
here 
will be interested, and since I am on all of these lists, I don't think
it is 
particularly out of line.

Finally, after many trials and tribulations (involving multiple family 
emergencies and temporary exile to Waco, Texas), SFCONSIM-L is finally
online.

1) So, what is SFCONSIM-L, you ask?

>From the Charter:
> SFCONSIM-L provides an unmoderated environment for discussion of
science 
> fiction conflict simulation games, including board and miniatures
games from 
> such publishers as GDW, SPI, and Metagaming, and games published in  
> magazines such as Ares and The Space Gamer. The explicit purpose of 
> SFCONSIM-L is to provide a platform for the discussion of published
games,	
> but discussion can range over the general topics of conflict
simulation 
> mechanics and design, military history, speculative fiction, physics
and 
> the sciences, tactics and strategy, historical conflict simulations, 
> role-playing game backgrounds, unpublished or Internet-published
games, 
> game collecting, convention and club announcements, or any other topic

> potentially related to conflict simulation games in a science
fictional 
> setting.

2) How does one subscribe to SFCONSIM-L?

There are two ways.  The more traditional is to send email to

 and place in the body of the text the line

Remember that CR or LFs in a URL are verboten, so if you mailer doesn't
read 
the entire URL, you will need to cut and paste it.

3) How can I see the full Charter and FAQ?

The latest version of the Charter and FAQ (as well as a link to the URL
above)
