Ah, I was perhaps a bit unclear. What I'm after is how to play it as a pbem. I dont know what files to send and such.

Btw, you mentioned that you can't control combats. Isn't this the case no matter what? Set your orders and hope for the best.

It should be buried somewhere in the manual.

But briefly:
1) Create a god (e.g. Man). And under the newlords folder of the game, you should find something like a "man.2h" - 2h stand for to host. Send that to the host.
2) After receiving all the 2h files, the host put all of them in a folder under the game directory. Choose to play it and then choose "host" the game.
3) After hosting, the host send out all the "trn" files under the folder to the players.
4) The players download the attached "trn" file from the email. Put it in a folder with any name he like.
5) The players choose playing the game (with the same name as the folder). Make their moves and then press "End Turn".
6) After that, there should be another "2h" file in the game folder. Send that to the host.
7) Go back to step 2.

I hope it's clear enough.
