I think SI's turns should be a limit of a week, but if we all get them in sooner, then that's good too.

To start with, the game will be so slow if it's a week between turns - the turn takes about 30 seconds to make, since you have very limited options.

Age of Wonders 2: Shadow Magic has a rather popular PBEM community. While it isn't supported anymore by Triumph, it is sold by 3rd parties new from $100 to $500. So if you manage to obtain a copy.

Here is a rather interesting log of a tournament game:

Vga Planets is free (or was when I last looked), but Solium Infernum isn't. You'll have to ask about that one.
There is, however, a demo that you can try - downloadable from the website above.

So far, for SI, we have:

TotalAnarchy
Saccade
El Quia
Fubb

Who else wants to join? Idk how many is max players
Are these new PBEM games or old ones? I have been playing a turn-based strategy game like Risk at Victors United. I wonder whether the genre is coming back but online?

Sadly all but one of those users are still active at Abandonia. You could pm Red Avatar for a quicker answer

Also, don't forget to check the date of threads you're replying to. After more than a year, this game is probably long over.

Cryptic Comet's games are new. Armageddon Empires is from 2007, Solium Infernum is from 2009. I personally recommend Solium Infernum. I managed to play it only in SP, but it was worth it.
