Ones that use alternatives to dice (cards, coloured stones, Jenga blocks) might be more tricky though, perhaps impossible.

It's possible if the screen is big enough. Would probably get annoying for regular use though. Pete uses his iphone to read updates and I use my HTC hd. It’s possible if the screen is big enough.

I dabbled a bit in RPGs when I was younger but, like you, struggled to find anyone willing to play. It was mostly pedestrian stuff (Tunnels and Trolls) but still fun. Recently I've had a renewed interest in the genre as "Game on! with Cody and John" [podcast] often talk about pathfinder and shattered earth. So how does it work in the forum? do you all agree a time to be logged on and play for an hour or so - or is it more like pbem ? Can it be done via a mobile? (eg an iPhone). I'd be interested in a slightly fuller post with some more details :-) Yeah, I know, I could read the FAQ. That sounds really cool.
