<p>Many of you have been wondering if and when the campaign will
begin again. That time is now.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p><i>The Age of PFs</i> a "no holds barred" type of campaign, where
nearly any empire is available (no LDR or Orions) and two seats
per empire are available. The Starting year is Y179 with 4 turns
per year. Initial borders will be historical (where possible),
with 1000 BPV to build your fleet and a small income stipend to
keep you going. Play will continue until the end of Y183 and the
winner will be the one with largest reported empire score (which
is an amalgam of Fleet BPV, Number of Borders, and Stockpiled
EPs.)<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I'm planning on opening up the first turn somewhere near
Thanksgiving (the end of this month), giving you about two
weekends to figure out if you want to join the game and what
empire you'd like to play. So come on in, click the "I'm
interested" button, and send me your empire choice!</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Frank is planning on starting a couple of "Fast Play" games, for
those who simply can't get enough Pow Pow. I'll let him make his
own announcements.<br>
