    Hmmm, I'm thinking of joining this PBM; it's been a long while since I've played RTW and I like the idea of marching the elephants over the Alps to Rome. Never played Carthage before so that might be fun too.

    I just want to add that I will be in beginning of April, so until the second week of April I obviously won't be able to play (week 15). I prefer not to play before I leave for the States as I will postpone posting the write-up and knowing myself I know that postponing equals "not posting at all" (cf. my Germania write-up).

    So, please add me to the list. I'll reconfirm my availability later on, IF there are still lands to be conquered by then

    Hope you'll find enough players!

    I'll join in but make sure you put me at the end because I'm going to be gone this week and when I return I have the WRE PBM to work on.

    Like your suggested addition Simon. I will incorporate it or something similar that ensures Rome is still in Romano hands by the time the Elephants arrive AND that the players still have a decent fight of it - I'll review that next week.

    It will be a week or two before this begins as I'm working on the Seleucids campaign and I know there are many playng the WRE campaign who are also interested in joining but people wishing inclusion during the campaign are free to put their names forward here, now. A schedule list will be drawn up by myself.

    Yes, I will be GM'ing the campaign throughout. I will notify players of impending turns and monitor responses.

    The 5 day response will be a concurrent one as Simon describes and yes just Four words in the OOC forum will do just so we know you're still there and "alive".

    Tricky and Zomby - you will both be on the play list. I'm going to assume Simon as well, although he hasn't said absolutely its implied well enough.

    The Rules above will be edited on Monday to reflect agreed changes this weekend.

    Braden, allow retraining of full strength elephants in the settlements that can upgrade weapons/armour? Also perhaps in Carthage itself?

    Also, Simon, perhaps allow the taking of Tarentum before the destruction of Rome? (but not through Sicily) After all, Hannibal did manage to get Tarentum to defect to him and used it as his base of operations.

    I'd join, but my holidays aren't long enough for trying out RTR, EB, and doing the WRE campaign... and I'm a terrible writer.

    I'll join as well. However, I expect to be heavily addicted to Oblivion starting next week, so put me towards the end of the list in one of those "if the game lasts this long" positions.

    Rule 10 : Mount Suribachi may join this PBEM, but not until he's finished his write-up for his WRE reign.
    "I request permanent reassignment to the Gallic frontier. Nay, I demand reassignment. Perhaps it is improper to say so, but I refuse to fight against the Greeks or Macedonians any more. Give my command to another, for I cannot, I will not, lead an army into battle against a civilized nation so long as the Gauls survive. I am not the young man I once was, but I swear before Jupiter Optimus Maximus that I shall see a world without Gauls before I take my final breath."
