I personally haven't played it but I have heard good things about it.

You and I need to talk about a little something Vort and I were discussing a few days ago, regarding a subject very, very, very similar to this, if you catch my drift.

I'll start digging out the folders. Hey, maybe if I get into BCIT this September, I might actually be able to program some of this myself in a few years.

We were actually thinking of something PHP-based, perhaps, but hey, what ever works.

Vort's talked to me about this before

I know, he mentioned that. I just need to get his rules and start looking at them, and maybe we can put something together. It'll be Warlords-style, I would think, and most certainly turn-based.

Should be interesting to see what you come up with.

la forge, you can count me in in that, and if you want a hand with any of the PHP or anything, drop me a line at this address go@way.now ( well i think its funny )

Seriously, throw me a mail if you want a hand with anything

I added both Wedge and Draz to a group on the IS.Net boards, which will allow them access to the current discussion there.

Feel free to drop by.

Go check out IS.net, post, and make sure your name gets on the list of people working on the project (not the list of potential people who Vort is planning on asking, which you are currently on

).

Alex: I'm hoping so, but don't expect anything for awhile. We're still just starting to figure out how to organize this project, much less actually start work on it.

Well, if there's anything I can do to help you guys out, let me know. I've got plenty of time on my hands to spend on a project right now. Even if I do lack all the cool computer programming skills that are probably required for this sort of thing, there's probably something I can do.

If you log in to the IS.Net MBs, you will notice that you have been added to a usergroup and can access a new board.

Hope to see you there!

About empire at war...
So will this be an army or navy game platform? OOO I KNOW JOINT OPERATION!!!

How many times will I have to say that a platform used by two divisions is a *bad idea*?

Quite a few times, I'd say. And it is going to be the subject of serious debate once it starts to trickle into the hands of GE members.
