pbem question

Greetings

Slightly off topic I know - but hopefully not too far [;)] - Reading through this forum for the last month or so has rekindled my interest in boardwargames, so much that I bought a copy of EiA off ebay. (Also to help learn the rules so I could play this computer version when it is released). There are obviously many people reading this forum who still play the boardgame, now I have a copy I would like to get involved in playing by email - as I have no chance of finding any physical opponents.

A previous post by somebody (cannot remember who) had a link to here http://utenti.lycos.it/playebasta/, but it is difficult to know if this site is still active. Can anybody direct me to a site that is active where there are potential opponents? Or are there people here who are still looking to play before the computer version arrives [;)].

Steve

What did you pay for it might I ask? I went looking just now but don't seem to be able to find any wargames. What area did you look in?

If you are looking to PBEM, check out http://groups.yahoo.com/group/empiresinarms/
you can usually find opponents there, though you may have to wait to find someone dropping a game or a new game starting. Doesn't happen as often as you think.

Lots of people out there play via cyberboard, which is a computer program that allows for PBEM of any wargame someone has bothered to port over.
