Colonial Campaigns Club (CCC)

I am surveying interest in a new Strategic Wargaming Club. The club would support strategic and grand strategic level, land-based wargames from any period. These are defined as games which typically:

1) Are historically based, though not necessarily historical. For instance, a post WWII Russian/American conflict would qualify. Star Wars would not.
2) Are turn based and pbem supported.
3) Represent a geographical area and a time period in which multiple major battles from a single conflict were fought or contemplated – i.e., a theater or war.
4) Have players represent theater commanders or higher.
5) Have units that represent higher-level formations (usually divisions or their equivalent or higher).

The SWC would compliment current clubs but not conflict with them in that most of the games the SWC would support are not regularly played by, and largely not supported by, clubs such as the Panzer Campaigns Club, Napoleonic Wargames Club, American Civil War Game Club or Colonial Campaigns Club.

This club would differ from a ladder in that all eligible games would be available for promotion points in a single location, and that it would be more of a role-playing club like PCC, NWC, ACWGC or CCC, with emphasis on playing games rather than earning promotions (though there is a promotion ladder in the game). However, those who are members of ladders would certainly be welcome to register qualifying club games in both places, provided your opponent is also a member of the ladder.

If you are interested in such a club, please respond to this post or drop me an email. If you would be willing to serve on the SWC staff, or as a deputy staff member, please note that in your email. Initial club rules have been drawn up and if you would like a copy of them, please note that in your email, also.

Thanks.
