Colonial Terra III

   In this play by mail, each player controls the destiny of a group of space
colonists.  Your colony can be one of a number of different types, from Scouts
to World Builders.  The Skills & Equipment & Ships that each colony can choose
at the start, depends on the start-up that you choose to take.  

   The colonist are from a mis-jumped ship which came from Terra.  The main
computer on board the jump ship went 'insane' and now there is no way of
getting back to Terra.  The U.N. Members on board disappeared one day, and now
there is the 'Trakkan Board' who control the Navy & Marines. So now each and 
every colony is out in the cold, trying to survive in an un-explored system 
named 'New Realm'.

   Each turn you will be sent a copy of the newletter (which player send in
general messages to or anything they want others to see), prices list of the
trading base that they may be at, and a sheet with your colony status and what
happern to them last turn.

   The game is human moderated so palyer can do anything they wish.  Interaction
will other player occurs through the Newletter or Private Messages (or you can
ring them up if they give you their address).  Anything is possible with this
system. Player can Terraform planets or make a genetic virus to attack other
players.  Basicly there is no aim, just do what you want.

The Cost is $5.00, with which you get the Rules, History, Planet List, Start-Up
sheets and 5 bucks of credit. The turn around is every two weeks with the cost 
being 1.50 + .25 per ship.  The moves will be sent surface mail, but players
can send in there moves by e-mail.

This PBM is based off Colonial Terra I, moderated by Ross Lay.  If you wish to 
play in his game, also send me a note saying so.
