If you are in your late 30's or 40's you may remember the truly outstanding elite. It may happen and they are seeking funding, read it here about Elite IV http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1461411552/elite-dangerous

Thanks Dannager. We are running a hosted mapper designed for PBP and wondered if the DDI VT would be better for PBP. From what you say it seems at the moment we are better to stick with the PBP mapper we have. You can read our discussion here if you fancy: Play by Post, Dice Roller, Demo Map...

I may have missed it, but I did read the thread and there is one question I have: Does this map application require the DM's PC to be on running it for a player to access it? I ask this as I wonder if it would be good for play by post games, where of course the DM may not have his PC on when...

Some players maybe ok with it, but some may also think a DM would be taking a big liberty by deciding bits of the background for the player. I've DM'd a number of games and would always discuss with the players if I wanted some bits of the background better defined. Also no DM has ever written...

I have the C&C players handbook and it's a good alternative to AD&D should you want that. I read the preview in the link provided and yes it could do with less of the self trumpet blowing and less waffle words. The production values of something like the pathfinder players handbook so much...

Seriously big amount of bad luck for you guys. I've seen it on the telly. As far as the game, if you all still have access to broadband there's the online option, using a Play by post site or real time rpg hosting software. There's PBP here, and I run a PBP website, should you want to carry...
