I was thinking, which is always a bad thing, abs what came to my mind was correspondence chess.
Yes, my brain is that random.
For those people that don't know what this is, once upon a time when people were nice and bored, they would play long distance chess. How they would do this is by working off the grid system and then moving the pieces to the appropriate grid location, one painful step at a time. For chess, this was a long process because quite simply the game could last for hundreds of moves, which means hundreds of letters.
As for my idea, I'm thinking that possibly a distance game of warhammer could be done with email (or even the blog). Take pictures of the table, and then go through the sections of the the game. It might not be every single minor thing, because some things can be clumped together. For example movement can be done in bulk, and even shooting, can be done in smaller groups or bunches depending on the complexity of the fight.
It's just a thought, but with the option of having two armies, and bugging Josh constantly for an army list, I might be able to do this.
Stay tuned, and we'll see what happens.
