I worked for PBI Software previously and saw quite a bit of strategic
conquest.  I can say it is an ok game, sort of simple.  Internally,
its a rats nest of code with tons of bugs.  Ask Chris Cwarford what
he thinks of it - it destroyed his hard drive.

You don't really have many options, the various versions of XXconq
on the suns is infinitely better.

I can say that if you like games, I recently produced a combination
of arcade/strategy/graphics in a game called "Leprechaun".  I am
looking for feedback if anyone has seen it.
