Fantasy Wargames: Olympia & Atlantis - iyhael - 08-27-2011
Hello,
I just found out about this site by sheer coincidence -- a google search for Far Horizons -- and wanted to post some links here that might be of interest. I think that those games deserve a place in Your link list, as they still have a strong fan-base, at least from the point of view of the ever dominishing group of pbem players.
1) A new instance of Olympia is running has been brought back to life. The war-game is set in a fantasy setting and is currently in the later mid-game stages. Currently, initiatives are under way to modernize this great game.
2) The Atlantis play by email games are missing, which feature a multitde of different code bases, derivates, special rules, i.e. Conquest, Arcadia, Standard, etc:
-- developers list
-- a running game from the 4.0.10 codebase
3) Eressea, a german but internationalized type of Atlantis game.
Regards,
iyhael

The Olympia site already has a link, here, on the front page of the site. I'll add the others, however.
Glad that you found the place, and I appreciate you posting.

Is this game still active? The link, which formerly worked, is dead, now.
