The Legends Corner

LEGENDS is a Play By (E-)Mail game. Should you not yet know what a PB(E)M-game is... well basically, it boils down to this: in the computer of a provider resides a large computerized world, and you, as player, can send in turnsheets (paper or electronic) to be processed, after which your game orders will have an impact on that game world; you will explore, build and conquer, with the help of the other players (dozens or hundreds, often of different nationalities) - or against them..!

LEGENDS thus is one of many PBM-games around - but our absolute favourite! It is set in a Fantasy world (dare we say: "a Tolkien-like realm"?). If you are not yet acquinted with the game, you will perhaps like an introduction; if you're already a Legends-adept however, likely you will want to skip to the Files section immediately.

• Check out the Short Intro first, to see if this game is something for you. A bird's-eye view.
• A lenghty General Introduction to Legends:
  • A description of the Legends game system
  • How to play the game
  • A literature list
  • An example of a Legends print-out
• A list of Companies that supply Legends (addresses, policies, etc) plus info on local Mailing lists for Legends (to debate on or ask questions).
• Recent Announcements of Legends providers (special offers, starting games and other transitory info).
• Game Records (player statistics and achievements), Action! (running games), Victory Parade (winners of finished games).
• Files relating to Legends (full index)
  (for a shortcut to the Technical Files section, you can sneak here, and for the new MG module have a look at the NIC (II) page.)

Here is the Visitors' Book, you can read it (although it's actually only meant for the maintainers' eyes, to cheer them up on those rainy days), and leave your mark.
