Questions on multiplayer PBEM

[Cheeze]

Javaslinger,

You have to figure that if you are playing even 1 turn a day, as you noted, the game with be a little boring at the beginning. You will have little tech and few resources to really develop. However, you will find that the early steps can even be important and over a short period of time it will be a much more interesting and involving game.

You just want to have a set of players who can all play about the same rate. In addition, the PBEM game ought to lead to a great deal of "back alley" diplomacy. In all fairness, I will not talk about specifics in my game with other players I do not have contact with in the game.
