The Fortran version of Empire is copyrighted. Decus erroneously distributed
the source, they have since stopped. I wrote the original for a PDP-10,
Herb Jacobs and Dave Mitten converted it to the VAX.

I'm sorry, but the source code is not available. Please do not post it
to the net.

Executable versions for the IBM PC are available for $29.95 from:
