Armageddon-ish mud...?
Dimitri J. Langston-Wiebe
I have been dabbling about on Armageddon, and am addicted. I was simply
wondering if there is another mud which is:
1. heavily skills based
2. strictly roleplay
3. has a Armag 'feel' (not world or theme, just 'feel')
If so, I'd love to hear 'bout it. Armag's 'lag time' in waiting for a
new char to be ok'ed after one has died has put me into a state of
withdrawl.

Much to my dismay, I haven't seen very many combat MUDs that are
similar to Armageddon. There are lots of MUSHes, MUCKs, and MUSEs that
are strictly role-playing, but none (that I've seen) have very well-
developed skills/combat systems, if they have them at all. There's
an LPMUD called Genesis that has a similar description system, but I
don't know how much role-playing goes on there. There's also a DikuMUD
called MUME... I've heard role-playing is "encouraged" there, but
not enforced like Armageddon.
If anyone's interested, I might release the Armageddon source code
next summer, if the would-be administrators are willing to put in the time
and effort required. (Please don't mail me about this yet.)
