Was recently reminded about this glorious moment in time: A real-time-turn-based-play-by-e-mail-hybrid by the tactics master himself, Julian Gollop. Never seen anything like it since. Anyone remember playing this? It’s not quite retro gaming yet, so not sure how to hashtag it… 😅 #JulianGollop #LaserSquad
