X+ equivalent to typing 'conquer -G -n MyLand -d this_game'.
X+
X+ The data directory and nation settings through the environment
X+ are just defaults and maybe overridden by actually entering a different
X+ option using '-d' or '-n'. [Note: to specify the default directory,
X+ you may simply specify '-d ""'.]
X+
X+ The XCONQENV environment variable combined with the use of shell
X+ aliases should allow quick access for players in multiple campaigns.

X+ CONQUER DEMI-GODS
X+
X+ Since god is often a busy fellow, it is within his power to
X+ assign worlds to his loyal followers. When creating a world god simply
X+ indicates a mortal who may administrate that world, and that player is
X+ promoted to demi-god status.
X+
X+ The demi-god may perform all of the godly functions for his world,
X+ including updates and nation alterations. But alas he is only watching
X+ over the world and is not it's owner, so he may not create a new world or
X+ cause the destruction of the world he watches. The demi-god for each
X+ world is indicated in the campaign information display ('I').
X+
X+ Perhaps god is looking for people to run his worlds. Send mail
X+ to XLOGIN and you may find out.

X To my knowledge Conquer runs well on UNIX (SYS V or BSD 4.3) systems. The
X game treats turns like a hidden move wargame would... you enter all your
X! moves and the program and the program tells you what happens. Like wargames,
X there is no turning back. Every move you make will be saved when you quit.
X If you goof up real bad, you need to go to the administrator, and have him
X! log in (as god) and fix whatever you did.
