I called Interstel about two weeks ago to ask. I got the receptionist whom I directed the question at. She only took about 1 minute 45 secs to find out from a higher up that << Empire v3.0 >> and << EMPIRE II >> are in a holding pattern around Mars. I thought I remembered her saying something about a third title being created or out the door already (currently Interstel makes << Star Fleet I >> and << Empire v2.05c >>). She could not give me a date for the next release or any more useful info so I said bye-bye. Could someone at Interstel tell us more please. - Ant achowe@tiger.waterloo.edu | "Murdered by pirates is good." __ _ | - The Princess Bride (movie) / _ _ _ |/ _ _ | _ _ |/ | \__| `<_\<_ |\|= | ` \_/<_\<_ |\ | disclaimer...
