Howdy, I'm hooked on the games Strategic Conquest and Reach for the Stars for the Apple II series (a GS which now pretty much stands for Game System for me), and I'm wondering if there are any games much similar to the two. Strategic Conquest is according to friends similar to the mainframe game EMPIRE, but with graphics and some other interesting things. mainly, you start with some tanks and a city, and the whole worldmap is black. you have to go out and explore the world, while building up your military (you can build sea-going stuff at oceanside cities, air stuff anywhere)... you also have to contend with the enemy who has to deal with the same problem.. it's good because of the planning involved with the industrial side, along with the strategic aspects as well. Reach for the Stars is quite similar but in terms of space. any takers? -- /I\ The JAMS don't need no master plan to do whatever ever they can /(*)\ henn...@acsu.buffalo.edu | - The KLF /IIIII\ UB could care less what a student thinks, let alone says. /IIIIIII\ Someone you trust is one of us.
