[net.games.emp] New Release of Empire?

davidk@dartvax.UUCP (11/08/83)

If Peter is out there, this is for him, otherwise it is for anyone in the
know. Any idea when the updated version of Empire is coming out? I'm still
waiting for a tape with a copy of the old version but I am wondering if
it is worth bringing up is it is going to be out of date in a month.Thanks

While on the subject of new releases and the like, I have a little problem.
I gather that empire is available only in binary form.  Understandable.
However, has anyone gotten around to porting it to an Apollo?  I have no
particular desire (or ability) to convert VAX machine language to 
68000 machine language, but I would like to see this game, particularly
when one considers the modifications that could be made useing a color
bitmapped screen.

It would be nice if there was a version compiled for the numerous 68000
systems that use UniPlus from UniSoft...
