Thanks for a great game! Used to play MSDOS Empire frequently back in the day. I actually started work on an Empire clone/derivative with network multiplayer support (a challenge for a turn-based game like Empire, but I'm borrowing ideas from Warlight - an network multiplayer version of Risk).
Dude, my GPA seriously suffered when we got Empire running on USC-ECLC (the DEC KI-10 that was running TENEX at the time, later upgraded to a KL-10 model B and TOPS20).
So thanks for that. :-)
Empire has the dubious distinction of causing many divorces and flunk-outs.
Not sure "upvote" is the correct response here but it's the only one I have :-)
What is Empire? Is it a video game? I only know it as a post exploitation tool.
