Sitko, Sarga88, and the board, I can certainly sympathize with a waning interest in any game. It's like being the God Emperor ... when you see the same...
this is a great idea! having a running commentary is a cool idea too. playing my first pbem game right now (dune.schtuff.com), my only big complaint is that...
A respectful hello to this group! Speaking of newbies, despite having this game seven years now, I've never played a game for lack of players. Then,...
I think in a pbem game, you should be able to about 1 turn a month. My games usually resolve bidding for 6 cards in 12 days. Chatroom could work if the time...
Hi Jay, I think that it's great that a game of Dune could organize and start in a single day. If you have information you can share, I'm sure others hankering...
One way to speed up the auction would be to do a blind auction. Rather than going round and round and asking people if they want to bid, each player would...
Nice to see some posts :). 1. I wrote the Dune Emulator. I tried to get some games going last year but it petered out after 2 attempts. (3rd week nobody showed...
Thats what we do in the IJ games. We allow completely conditional bidding, and use this format: X-Y-Z (X = starting bid, Y= bid increment, Z = Highest...

perhaps I'm a bit of a purist, but I can't really see it working without the bidding system that is used in the rules. Half the fun of the game relies around...
That's very similar to the method I use in my game. However you still need one deadline for each card in the bidding, because Atreides obviously wants to know...
That why I run the auction for each card in two rounds. Players submit orders, see where the bidding heads, and have a chance to react. The bidding can be one...
When I ran play-by-(snail)mail games, we resolved bidding in a single mailing or transaction. Along with rules along the lines Ron suggested, the GM would send...

All, I apologize for the recent spam that some jerk under false pretense signed up for our group, and got our mailing list for his spam needs. I suggest a...
I have to disagree with one point that Sitko made -- I don't think we should "clean house" and remove all members that have never posted. For instance, I know...
I wanted to take this discussion offline, as it has nearly zero to do with Dune Board Game...all the input I've received regarding this has pretty much said...
Agreed. It's been a long time since I posted, since I prefer to read. And I'm active on a Dune discussion forum so don't have a great deal of time for list...

Hi Mark, What a sad state of affairs to see Fremen shipping back to the reserves. Muad Dib would not be pleased :-) Commentary aside, the answer to your...
If the Fremen are allied with the Spacing Guild and want to ship to their reserves, do they pay the normal rate of one spice per two tokens or fraction...
Wow, Tom Swider answered my last question before it appeared! Must be an Atreides:) Does a player need permission to use an ally's power? For example, could...
I'm not here to post or to discuss. I watch this list so that maybe someday a game will open up at a moment where I have time to play. Period. I hardly think I...
Hi Mark, I think that happened because of yahoo groups order processing. I approved your message from email and responded in the forum. So I think their email...
