Series 2. Other play-by-mail games
circa 1989-1990
Series Scope and Contents
This series contains materials from two play-by-mail games,
Tribes of Crane and
Warp Force Empires.
Tribes of Crane was one of the earliest play-by-mail games with a large fan base. The player's manual was quite short and the players needed
to write "special actions" to obtain additional information about aspects of the game. Items in the series related to the
game include special information handouts, and miscellaneous sheets created by players to expand game options.
Warp Force Empires was notable because it was designed to be completely anonymous and any indication that players were communicating outside
the game system resulted in expulsion from the game. It also sought players who would pick up abandoned positions in a running
game as "standbys," who would be rated on a different system than the regular players. Players requested specific classes
of races with very different goals and scoring actions. The one who gained the most points during a game was the winner. Games
had a minimum and maximum length, and a complex set of rules that would determine the end-term once past the minimum. Items
in the series include all documentation and results of a game of
Warp Force Empires.
