You cannot use the name Empire and attach it to a program that is similar
to my Empire game. That would be trademark infringement. The same rule
would apply if you wrote an operating system and called it MS-DOS. I think
you would hear from Microsoft real fast.

I've often wondered why people think that since I'm a very small company
that I'm not entitled to the same protection under the law that billion
dollar corporations are.
