I just loved this game.
I looked today and got an ST Emulator and managed to also get v1.01 of this classic. Just spent 4 hours playing it and its as good as I remember. This was and still is my fav computer game ever. My friends are going to freak when they are round and they hear that old tune as I load up the game. |

Countless nights on this game, with friends. It's incredible : every computer nation acts exactly as the real nation actually did in the 19th century. England will occupy islands, and then be able to land troops everywhere, USA will occupy the whole north & central americas, but won't care much for the rest of the world, Russia will try to occupy Indies (don't let them do that, or they'll turn themselves into a superpower). France & Germany will compete in Europe, and in the rest of the world. Japan will be an outsider, able to land strong armies everywhere in a most surprising way.
But what a pity : former colonial powers like Nederlands, Spain, Portugal, and local powers like Austria-Hungary, China, Turkey are nothing but colonies. |

This is my favourite game on the ST. I can remember all the nights I played this game with my friends. Russia is my preffered nation: soldiers are so cheap that you can invade other countries with millions of army men ;-) It is very addictive. I have never found a game like this on any other platform. |

The 1000-point mark is really hard; once you had 1000 points, ALL other nations declare war on you! So, best strategy is to eleminate one nation first (France, England or Germany depending on who you are) and then get just below 1000 points and wait (and save armies!) until some computer-nations have huge looses due to war against each other - then attack and defeat one nation as fast as possible). It's easiest to win this game with Russia because the armies are extremely cheap (and Germany and France won't stand your attacks very long) and when you are controlling Asia, Africa and Europe, building masses of (expensive) ships won't be a big problem...Great game! |

I spent hours on this game and have never found anything on a PC that I prefer! Where can I get it so that I can play it with an emulator? |

I've lost many nights on this game, but I've never owned it myself. Does anyone know where I can find a copy? |
