BOARD18 is still some months away from being useable. I hope to make a testable (pre-alpha) version by July, but that will depend on my getting some [[Project:Community portal|help]]. I created this project WIKI on May 5, all though I had been working on BOARD18 for about 9 months prior to then. The Design and How To pages of this WIKI already contain a lot of good information.  And I will continue to add information as time permits.

Welcome

BOARD18 is a tool for playing “18xx style” games via Email.

The BOARD18 game session associated with a PBEM game is used to display the game board and the stock market for the game. It will run as a web service accessed via the player's web browser.
The How To page linked to here contains step by step instructions for setting up a PBEM 18xx game.

BOARD18 is open source software available under the MIT License

Status

BOARD18 is still some months away from being stable.
But a testable (pre-alpha) version is now available here.
I could still use some help in finishing this initial version.

The Design and How To pages of this WIKI already contain a lot of good information. And I will continue to add information as time permits.

Please don't be put off by the log in process. Read this explanation first.

Please let me know if you would like to contribute to the BOARD18 project.
