Firstly let me say what a delight it is to find this mailing list. Secondly, I have a theory that HeroQuest is particularly well suited for PBeM because of the...
You're better off advertising here http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/GloranthaInternetGaming/ where there are over 100 folk waiting for a game to play. ...
... I've been using it for PBeM for several years now, and it's good. Whether it's particularly suited to PBeM or just particularly suited to me, I'm not sure...
Cheers, thanks muchly for that. I'll put a post up right away. All the best, Lev ... http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/GloranthaInternetGaming/ ... ...
Hey all. Im a new guy just joined the list. I just obtained the Heroquest rules, and Im eager to try them out with my friends, but I have a million questions...
... Welcome to HeroQuest! However, there is a dedicated HeroQuest rules list at http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/HeroQuest-rules/ which might get you a...
