Howdy and Help

[Ishmann]

Hello-

My name is Brent. AKA, Ishmann. I have been playing Table Top RPGs for a long time. I have never played PBM games though. I would love to try it out!

I am coming into this with no knowledge about where to start or what to do. Any help and guidance would be appreciated.

Hi Brent!

First, decide if you want to play PBM games that are actually played via the postal service, or whether you want to try one where you receive your turns via electronic mail or via some kind of Web interface. Which way you go on that one will help to determine what your range of choices are.

Then, you might want to decide what kind of genre that you prefer? Space game? Fantasy game? Sports game? Etc.

I prefer fantasy. I thought going via the postal service might be fun and different. Is there anything you would recommend?
