Well, my PBeM game Deneb Clash is just starting. It is based on
Superior
Models Starfleet Wars line of miniatures but the game is basic FT with
only a few modifications. Turn 0 with the fleets initial positions is
being sent out today.
Thanks to Matthew Seidl, Deneb Clash has its own page:
http://www.cs.colorado.edu/~seidl/deneb/deneb.html
Everyone is invited to go there and get the background information on
the
game, ship stats, rule modifications, etc, and then watch the game
progress. As Turn 0 information is just being sent out today, it will
not
be on the site yet but will be soon.
Each turn a detection report and map will be available. Thanks to Jon
Davis, the maps will look great. Limited intelligence is used so the
detection reports do not list specific systems.
I know Jon Davis and Mark Kochte also have PBeM sites for some of their
games and a number of others have run games but I will let them speak
for
themselves.
