A short while ago there was a posting of the sources for a Unix version of
Empire.  I missed this posting and asked if someone could e-mail it to me.
Some kind soul replied and asked me to send a path.  I tried to reply, but
it bounced back.  Would someone please send me the source for Unix Empire?
My e-mail address is genghis!sns@csvax.caltech.edu

Could whoever's going to email it to him also email it to me?  Empire's
one of my favs and I haven't been able to play it in almost two years.

Add another onto the list of requests.  As a new site, we missed the
posting.  Perhaps there is enough demand to warrant a reposting?  Or
not...

Wait and see?

There have recetly been several requests for the empire sources.  I will forward
them to anyone who asks, so please e-mail requests to me, to save the net from
hearing the same thing many times.

I have been listening to this discussion and was wondering which empire you
are talking about.  One empire writen by Walter Bright is mostly a Fortran
program with latter people making alterations on it.  I heard however that
it is only used on VMS systems or the IBM-pc.

The second game called empire was written by Peter Langston for a Unix baised
environment.  This game however does not come with the source code and the
person who owns the copywrite to the game can't be reached.
(Peter are you listening!)
