(games) Describing a game that can be played in a turn-based fashion through postal mail or email..
Heimito Gerhardt, a fan of gaming by mail, presented Conrad and me with our own play-by-mail kits as he accompanied us to the bus station. It so happened that Heimito corresponded with Rex Douglas (one of Conrad's idols), the great American gamer and star writer for one of the most prestigious of the specialized journals, The General.
THE COST is $25 per month or $60 for 3 months. Each month includes one grand strategy turn and 4 or 5 weekly situation turns. This is an average of less than $4 per turn, just a little more expensive than other play-by-mails, and you get detailed descriptions and color maps with each turn.
