Micro Wars - The simple war game

Somebody in another forum complained that there didn't seem to be any gamist action here. To counteract that trend, I've put up my web site for Micro Wars, a simple wargame that I invented to entertain my girlfriend's son. You can grab a preliminary copy of the rules from http://www.story-game.com/microwar.shtml

This web site also represents a hybrid between my mania for automation and Ron's suggestion that any distribution should require e-mailing the author. The e-mail with file attachment is sent automatically from my web page, and looks entirely as if it came from me. I get a copy of the name and e-mail address of the person who requested the file.

I'm pretty happy with both the game and the cool distribution trick that I pulled off. If anybody here would like to use this same automation feature, drop me a message via e-mail.
