I advertised here a while back looking for play-by-email (PBEM) players for my game, Kepler, a 5-player wargame/Euro blend. I'm giving it another try.
I eventually got a game going through other channels (BGG and a Slack group I am in for TTS-playtesting). I had to join the game to replace one player who was always late with his moves, but apart from that it has proceeded well. It gets a little tricky being GM and a player, because the game uses hidden information, but I have devised methods to get around that.
I did eventually get a couple of responses here, but the first game was already underway by then.
I'm keen to GM another PBEM game, and have about 3 players who would probably join (one from BGDF, one from real life who is also in the first PBEM game but wants to play again, and one from The Red Dice TTS group). I could play as a 4th player, so we really only need one more player, but two more would be even better.

Hi there,
Playtesting for Kepler is ongoing. I have had a tremendous amount of help from a couple of BGDF members, and will be paying them back with some of my own time and effort (after I finish a big-ole report for work this weekend...)
But I am planning ahead, and thinking about the next game in the series. I have four players signed up, and just need one more player.
The game would suit folks who like deep brain-burning games with layered strategy, and don't mind a bit of conflict.
PM me if you are interested and I will send you a link to the latest draft of the rules.
