At the moment I'm working on a medieval turn based strategy game and it's in beta phase right now, and I need some testers to try it and improve it with me.

I'm trying to make a realistic game as much as it is possible. Please, feel free to e-mail me or message me here.

Still work in progress in so far as completing the migration to the new ownership, e.g. embedded GUI links to old site/mail - testing a revised version; and a niggle with Windows 7 that requires a workaround - but hey, Rome was not built in a day.

So, what is AGEgames?. Essentially, a game system with a downloadable GUI for each of the six scenarios:

Age of Conquest - Rome/Carthage era
Medieval - as it says on the tin
Shogunate - Japanese civil war era
Napoleonic - as it says on the tin
Dragonlords - fantasy
Galactic Warlords - Trek Wars themed

The website links:
http://www.agegames.co.uk
- intro site, still being added to
- recent expansion is the dedicated forum (picking up from the 6 existing Yahoo Groups and a neglected Yuku forum) see:
http://www.agegames.co.uk/bbforum

http://www.lords-of-conquest.com
- game scenario web pages access, giving details, screenshots, rules, GUI download and sign-up

The best idea is to have a look, it may get you hooked.

Another quick post. The game development really is moving at a swift pace. There is alot happening each and every week. If you are at all interested, then you can do a number of things:

1] Visit the Ilkor: Dark Rising website and signup for the beta playtest for free.

2] Pop over to our blog. We try and post at least weekly. Today's post talks about character creation including a screenshots.

3] Our wiki, Gazetteer of Arcadia is a great place to learn more about the game setting and background. Our GMs are actively adding content each week.

Cheers,

It's interesting in this post Cold War multi-polar world, with the rise of commercial security/mercenary outfits and large areas experiencing political instability, that this game dealing with soldiers of fortune seeking to conquer/stabilize terriitory in such a region would have more precience now than it did then.

This version of the game comes with color maps detailing the geography of the territory on different levels. Also, you have a thorough rulebook, and the weapons catalogue which starts out at a considerably lower tech level than the previous game (no M1 Abrams in here, that probably can come later).

So...Colonel Tiberius Abrams surveys this land, this land of blood, tears and possibilities.]]>

I was huge into Galactic Prisoners (I was HT Rex) and other games back in the days....

I'm cleaning out my garage and came across a box of old PBM magazines. It's perhaps 50 Paper Mayhems, about 20 Flagships, and a few Avalon-Hill Generals. They're not in the best condition, and I'll want to keep a few that I wrote reviews in... but otherwise, I hate to just chuck'em all.

Is it possible anyone might want these?

I can't seem to find Paper Mayhem off the bat, in a google... is it still alive?

And I noticed how Flagship appears to have started a digital archive - but Carol Mulholland is now ill. How sad!

Any ideas concerning the disposition of these mags is welcomed.

Thanks!

Fate of a Nation needs a few more players to fill up one of the main continents. If you're interested in a strategic long-term PBeM which has a small but dedicated group of players have a look at our website:
http://www.fateofanation.net

Fill the registration form and I will create a player account that can be used to create a new nation setup file. The game is free to play.

There is a limited number of players that can be accepted. Setups will be accepted on a first come basis.

Best regards,

Just in time for the one year anniversary of the Rising Empires project we started our first ‘real’ play test of Rising Empires. A lot has been happening during 2011 and although progress hasn’t been as quick as we originally thought we are getting closer to completing Rising Empires. Or to quote Johan J, “The game is fully playable but some parts are not complete yet, there are hints around the game of missing functionality.” This issue, the eleventh, of the Norberg bulletin is a report of the first 20 turns of the play test...
