I just joined this forum with the express purpose of doing just that. Though I am relatively new at PBEM, I have a bit of experience under my belt. Any one else interrested?

I'm running the (native Loki) Linux version here and never had problems with other Win-ACAX-Gamers in PBEM games. As far as I know there is just a problem with ACAX-IP-games, but I never tried one yet...

From what I have seen, it looks as though you can convert your Simultaneous move IP Games to regular IP games then to PBEM games, which kind of intrigues me. Something like that would get a lot of the early game boredom out of the way quickly. But for you guys, I would love to just to a PBEM.
So what about rules? Should we stick with the ones list in some of the other threads (standard)?
I haven't played on Apolyton before, but it looks like we would need a game master and some map settings before we can start. That and faction picks. What does everyone think?

Oh, where did you get the linux client? Is it one of those rare pieces of linux software that you have to buy?

I can live without a game master and a totally random map sounds fine with me. I have never done the three games, but I wouldn't mind doing it.
What factions for everyone?

Not worth buying it as I currently run windows at home. But if it were free I could pick it up for work/VNC it.

I am fine with the regular factions. Heck, I am even fine with the Aliens, though I don't think I wan to play them. For the last game I played, the game masters saw fit to include two pirate factions, so they hacked up another one out of good ol' fung boy. With four players instead of 7, I don't think we will be hurting on pirates.
Transcend difficulty ok with everyone? I haven't seen a multiplayer game without it. By this point I am just so used to it.
Maybe I would like to play the Drones or the Believers. Its not that I like research penalties. Its more that I like the factions themselves. The Believer cities even look cool.

Hmmm... obviously there's no-one interested in joining ?!
Could this be true ???
Anyway, if you (nik9000) are still interested in a PBEM I can set up a (few) game(s) with another group of players I've been playing for a few years (we are looking for a few new players...).
Just let me know.

Sorry... SMAX all the way. And we are allready 5 players and started. Sorry.
Anyway, I just popped into this thread and offered a game as the original poster (Tigertank) some kind of never showed up again and some interested players in here seemed to be a bit "lost" then.
But maybe Tigertank is still looking for players... ??!!
Or anyone else...???
