 Foundation which was released at the World of Amiga Show last week is now getting it's own Mailing List, being run thanks to Andrew Kellett. Foundation is a real-time strategy war game in the style of Settlers and Civilisation for the Amiga. So far there have been no reviews but sales at the Show did look healthy and I have received good comments from people who have played it. I hope to have Review of Foundation soon.
Below is more info on the Foundation Mailing List and instructions on how to Join, on the list will be Paul Burkey the author of Foundation.

The Foundation Mailing List
|
The Official Foundation Mailing List is now open. For all those who don't
know, I've been working closely with Paul Burkey for just over 6 months on this
project, and now the game has begun to go on sale (First copies were
sold at the WOA, where Paul was attending on the Sadeness stand) it now
seems appropriate to go public with the e-mail address.
 The software used to run the Mailing List is my own, and will be available
directly from F1 Software in the next 2 months or so.
There are 2 sides of the Mailing List, a digest side, and a regular posting
side. If you subscribe to the Digest part of the list, you can still make
postings etc. and will receive one large e-mail a day, with all the previous
day's postings compiled into an easy-to-read list for your convinience. If
you join the regular list, then you will simply receive lot's of seperate
mails. It is possible to join both of the lists if you wish.
To join the Mailing List, simply send a blank e-mail with the subject as
SUBSCRIBE DIGEST (if you want to join as a Digest member) or SUBSCRIBE
(on it's own will place you on the regular list) to
mushypd-foundation@redrose.net where it will be processed automatically.
Please allow for time to process your mails, especially if the list is
experiencing a lot of traffic. Digest's are compiled at Midnight EST time,
and can take as much as 2 hours to distribute it to everyone. Please be
patient.
I would also like to ask people not to make any kind of postings to the
list until they have received confirmation that they have been joined to
the list. The list is moderated by myself to ensure nothing spam-wise get's
through, and when a SUBSCRIBE/SUBSCRIBE DIGEST command comes in, an
authentication process must occur before you will be added. If you try and
post before you receive the final conformation, there is a good chance your
mail will not make it onto the list.
For those who are interested in seeing what the list is all about, you can
send a mail to the same address with the subject as FAQ and information
will be mailed to you, without placing you on the mailinglist.
Paul Burkey is on the Mailing List, so please don't heckle him with lot's of
stupid questions that are already answered in the FAQ files. Paul already
receives lot's of mail about Foundation, so please give him time to read
and reply to mails.
Thank-you for your time and patience. Enjoy the game, and now enjoy the
Mailing List!
