I have a public domain version of Empire...well, at least the listings.  I
know the guy who ported Empire to C on the IBM, then took a bunch of his
listings, and moved them to the ST.  They worked, but just barely (although
they were amazingly fast...it seems that since Empire took up more than 64K
it ran very slow on the IBM, so on the ST it was blinding.)

Anyway, I was never much of a fan of Empire, so since it still had a few
problems I sort of gave up.  If anybody really really wants the listing (to
finish the job) send me mail.  The listing is NOT public domain, so I would
first have to ask my friend for permission.

PS - What doesn't work is the "?" command and saving/loading.
