I have a little game going on in the Adventuring section. What did you want to know Aldrick? I guess I answered your first question in part there. How do you play? You Play by e-Mail of course.
Really, just ask if you have specific questions. We just recently started, and I think its new to everyone, but we're learning. |

| My players still created their characters to play, and we will still roll the dice for combat, skill use, etc., but PbeM so far is interactive storytelling. With e-mail you can say a lot more as you think of it, but the game goes slower, much slower, than a person-to-person game. Even if you know only the basic rules you can find a PbeM game, or a game with friends. Its not about the rules! |

| Aldrick, youll be better off buying the D&D Players Handbook to learn the rules before you join any PbeM. |
