Be Part of a new begining...

Avondale is a completely new and innovative original Historically Based Role Playing Game.
Age Range: Adult (17+)
It is 1901 and the world is entering a new century. It is a time of rapid growth and expansion; a time of industrialization and commerce -- of waves of immigration to the land where "the streets are paved with gold". The United States has just engaged in it's first "foreign war" and has suddenly found itself with an unwanted and unwelcome "colonial empire" and comittments to far-away places and peoples. It is a time of transition in which old meets new. TR is in the White House and Queen Victoria is on the throne. Isolation is ending but the United States is still far from being a "global" power.
Avondale is a quintessential small town on the verge of becoming a city. Telephones, electricity, indoor plumbing and automobiles are all "new" and still seen as a novelty. Television, radio and the "movies" are still unheard of. The west is still "wild". There are only 46 states in rhe Union.
The citizens of Aavondale are faced with adapting to a way of life that is strange, new and yet strangely compelling. They stand on the brink with a foot in two very different worlds. Some of the children born in Avondale this year will live to see man walk on the moon -- yet remember a time when there was no such thing as an airplane.
The "Victorian Age" is fading and the "new morality" of the early 20th century is coming and coming fast.
If you don't like the way "history" turned out, come to Avondale and help make the world the way you'd like to see it.
NOTE: Avondale is not a new RPG but we have just completed a move back to Yahoo Groups after spending five months at Google Groups due to several of our long-time members being unable to manipulate the 'changes' that Yahoo introduced last year and then abandoned at the begining of this year. There are several storylines in progress and plenty of opportunity for opening new ones.
