Intro:- RCW is the latest in a long line of multiplayer PBEMs I have either played in, GM'd or both. I play PBEM almost exclusively now as my job (as a Library and Information Studies lecturer at Loughborough University) is very busy during the week. On the weekends my wife works, so I have to mind the kids then but find time to PBEM. Also on the weekend I do updates for Web-Grognards. See my personal page at:- http://www.poulter.demon.co.uk/ for links on my web pursuits, job, family piccy etc. I know most of the other players in this game. Pitt and Chuck I am playing in PBEM games of Republic of Rome. John Quarto was King of Poland and me Byzantium in a memorable Empires of the Middle Ages. Ask me sometime what happened over Hungary :-) David Fram was in Conquistador with me Player-GMing as the German Banker and he took over England towards the end, winning a storming victory with that country. Tom I have not been in a game with before. Tom, you are only one I trust! :-)
