It will be played in Forgotten Realms. I was wondering how you did the roleplaying aspect. Do you email each person what someone says, the first person who replies is the one who says something? Ex:Email 1Npc: Hellosend mail 1player emails: hey, who are youEmail 2Npc: HelloPlayer: Hey, Who are you?Npc: Valin the great.send mail 2player 2 emails: What are your intentions?Email 3Npc: HelloPlayer: Hey, Who are you?Npc: Valin the great.Player 2: What are your intentions?Is this how it works or what? I plan on running combat like this:As you walk through the door, you enter a 25 x 25 room. Two orcs on the opposite side of the room let loose arrows, and another stands, mace drawn in the center. The arrows both make their mark, one on Aarlin's shield, not dealing damage, and the other pierces his right shoulder (take 4)Then send a diagram (made by cc2, not like the one shown)O=emtpy    E=Enemy    D=Door (open)   w=WallA=Aarlin   B=Billy     C=Candy   F=FredOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAOOwwDww       B     C     FThen I will have the players send me:InitiativeTo HitDamageAny Spells they want to do and other things like thatIf, then situations (if during the round Aarlin gets hit again, then Fred wants to heal him if it happens before his round otherwise he wants to cast the designated spell or swing his mace).How do you think this would work? Any tips appreciated!!Also anyone interested in joining drop me an email (ncs966@aol.com).Nik</blockquote>
