Fallen Empires PBE - Fallen Empires - 04-04-2013
Hi all,
We've been running our PBE game (Fallen Empires) for about a year and a half now and have just launched V.2. Its a fantasy game that uses spread sheets to build equipment and buy goods and Word documents to give actions, as well as having a map to move around and interact with.
The game currently has two options for players - Tribes and Settlements. Both have progressed well since V.1. We're looking to add new player run options in the near future, including Sea Raiders and Mercenaries, which will eventually lead to Political Figures who have control over multiple types.
The game is currently running at a two weekly turn around for the turns, and had been running at weekly throughout V.1. Turns cost £2 each and set up and first turn are free.
If you're interested in giving it a go, or have any questions please post here or email us at fallenemp@gmail.com
Thanks!

Tribes are mobile and roam the countryside, trading, fighting etc and settlements are embryo cities needing walls to be built and growing to be a fully fledged city.
There are set up notes which explain the game concepts available free of charge from fallenemp.gmail.com

The part of your quote that I have put in red - Is that supposed to be a website URL address, or an e-mail address?

Hi,
Is anyone on PlayByMail.Net in this game? I intend to join, and am looking for information from players about what they've experienced.

I have joined in the game, and just submitted my first turn.
The Iron Storm tribe, lead by the Great Chief Thundervein has finally been recognised as a civilised society in the known region of Clantium.
Let me know how you go as I am happy to engage in diplomacy or a information exchange.

Hi,
I've been playing the game since day 1 and would highly recommend it. Reliable turnaround, very good prices, 2 GM's who produce turns and battle reports to very high standards. Most importantly however they listen to players and are open to suggestions for improvements and chagnges to the game mechanics for the good of the game.
The spreadsheets cover the basic game mechanics of the game - ie trading, researching, tribal status (size / breakdown) but the game really comes into it own by the use of the 1 major action and 2 minor actions which you present each turn in free form text format, which in reality are only limited to your imagination and the tech levels within the game.
As touched on above currently 2 types of positions a tribe and settlement, having played both they offer different challenges and oppurtunities.
If you check out the facebook page (Fallen Empires PBE) there is a lot more information.
More than happy to provide more information or contact the GM's on the above link who can give you all you need.
Regards
Rob Harding

Thundervein - Now, there's a nice name for a character.
