Hey Ed. I live up in Celina. It's a good 45 min to an hour to Garland, but at least I'm sort of vaguely in the area.

45 min aint nothin'.

Michael and I drive about 2.5-3hrs to go game with Byron. :p

I'm always up for Vassal or Cyberboard play over Skype.

Well, when Mike Parker was able to come up here, he did the 5 hour drive between Houston and far north Dallas. Would stay for the whole weekend. It was awesome.

Miss those days...

How is Mike doing? The last I heard was he was having some health issues?

By Ted Fay (Catwhoeatsphoto) on Friday, July 03, 2015 - 05:51 pm: Edit

I don't know. His facebook page is active, but he has ignored all of my emails and attempts to contact him.

Looking for a patient expert to teach me F&E via Vassal. Local opponents are non existent.

I have more than a passing familiarity with chit wargames. F&E is just giving me a hard time trying to learn it by myself.

I was hoping for 2 to 3 sessions a month of 2 to 4 hours each. Not a huge commitment. I feel like once I turn a corner and grasp the basics the rest won't be so scary.

Also I would be glad to donate some money for your time. 10 to 15 bucks a month. chrismata@gmail.com if you can help me.

Dayton/Xenia/Columbus/Cincinnati players;

We will be starting a new F&E Early Beginnings game in late September. Initial set-up day will probably be the Saturday the 26th. Interested parties should contact me at deepspacefleet@aol.com if you would like to join.

We play once a month at my house, where we can leave the game set up full time. Come on out, we have a blast and are always up for teaching new players.

Too long a commute for us Floridians, alas.

Which city, Dan? I live in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

By Roger Rardain (Sky_Captain) on Wednesday, September 02, 2015 - 02:29 pm: Edit

Dan is located in Xenia - Ohio's "Windy City".

By Randy Blair (Randyblair) on Wednesday, September 02, 2015 - 05:06 pm: Edit

I just drove by there yesterday...it's only two hours away from me as the crow flies.
Are we talking about doing the four powers war?

By Roger Rardain (Sky_Captain) on Wednesday, September 02, 2015 - 07:18 pm: Edit

No, we're going to play Early Beginnings.

By Daniel Glenn Knipfer (Dgknipfer) on Thursday, September 03, 2015 - 12:53 pm: Edit

Randy,

As Roger said, we play in Xenia, just east of Dayton on US 35. Ft Wayne is a bit far, but if you're willing to suffer the drive we would be glad to welcome you.

We will be playing a version of Early beginnings. It's kind of like Star Craft for F&E.

Edit: Due to scheduling at this end, we will probably be starting on the 19th. However, due to the unique nature of Early Beginnings a player could miss the first game session and catch up. After all, you are building your own empire.

By Randy Blair (Randyblair) on Thursday, September 03, 2015 - 01:37 pm: Edit

Sounds good to me.

I need to get out of the house more anyway.

Looking to start up an online F&E game. Preferably using Vassal as I think I mostly have it figured out.

By Lee Hanna (Lee) on Thursday, May 05, 2016 - 09:54 pm: Edit

Looking for a PBEM F&E game. Vassal or Cyberboard. I'm up for either a team game or a single-front/single-sector small game.

By Ryan Opel (Ryan) on Friday, May 06, 2016 - 12:58 am: Edit

Lee,

I might be interested. Send me an email.

Lee, I think we need a hydran player for AFD.

By Lee Hanna (Lee) on Friday, May 06, 2016 - 10:38 am: Edit

Randy, let me see if I can thrash something out with Ryan first. I will peek at AFD, see if that interests me.

By Richard B. Eitzen (Rbeitzen) on Friday, May 06, 2016 - 11:50 am: Edit

AFD is currently starting A9.

By Peter Bakija (Bakija) on Monday, May 09, 2016 - 01:31 pm: Edit

Yeah, as the person currently playing the Hydrans:

A) I'd like to continue playing the Hydrans.

and

B) The Hydrans are in a horrible situation anyway :-)

The Gorns will come up not too far off, and would be a much better place to start in this game. As the Hydrans are homeless, out of supply, and likely to be pinned anywhere they go.
