	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?

Keep pumping lead into him.  SS agents can take more hits than the
brownshirts can.  One you kill him you get his machine gun, then you
can really kick butt.

Yea, I've played a game on the net called Galactic Bloodshed. You
start as a race on a planet (your own design of race) and explore
reproduce build resorces technology and such then explore other
planets ofcource while this is going on there are anywhere from 1 to
100 other players doing the same thing in other systems. So ya build
ships, fighters, battle cruisers, ect... and war breaks out.

There is anouther game called Conquest played the same way only on the
planet scale.

You can find more info about GB (Galactic Bloodshed) in alt.games.gb

Hope this helps.

There isn't a key.  That was an error.  The elevator to level 10 is behind a
secret door.  If you want more info, check the spoiler below.

To kill an SS trooper, shoot him a few times.  Preferably with that SMG(3) you
found behind the secret door on level 1.  Of course, if you have to use your
pistol(2), you'll get an SMG(3) off the body.


SPOILER





The secret door for the elevator to level 10 is behind another secret door in
the room with the elevator to level 2.

Glad I'm not the only one!

|Well, here's the question:
|
|Level 1:  Where are those keys?  I only found one secret door (opposite of the
|          armor guy or whatever) and got a big gun.  I know there's more.  And
|          one locked door can take you to level 10.  But where's the key?

Thanks, I haven't found a single secret door.  Not enough patience I
guess.

|Level 2:  How do I kill the blue guy with the machine gun?

Keep firing at him, it takes several shots.  Once you get good enough,
you can nail 'em without taking a single hit yourself.

|Thanks!  

Sure thing.
