" Are you offering a challenge? As deity of the Klingon Empire, "
" I will gladly match John Walton Jr., Martin Luther, Farmer McDonald, "
" and Adolf Hitler against any leaders your universe boasts. "
" Name the game and our method of access. "

I repeat an earlier letter posed by J BUCK

From postnews Mon Sep 9 13:26:15 1985
Subject: Empire Game
Newsgroups: net.games.emp
Distribution: net

We have a machine sitting here doing nothing. How many people would
be interested in playing a nation-wide game of Empire? Perhaps the
best player from each facility (school, institute, research center,
technology center, lcm or hcm factor, whatever) could play?

You would have to foot the phone bills to Long Island, NY though. (At
least it's 300/1200 baud, not just 300). Please let me know if you
are interested asap. I was planning on starting this thing October 1.
This would allow ample time for people to log on and get the new INFO
pages they need, etc. (The version of Empire we would use would be
the one I discussed in the previous article. ALL BUGS FIXED (Yeah, right!),
well, at least all known bugs.)

Details to follow if people are interested.

(No, we are not on telenet or anything like that.)

Send replies to:
decvax!mcnc!rti-sel!polyof!john
or
philabs!ron1!polyof!john

PS:
Only 32 countries, 128x128 world, nukes, multi-span bridges, and all.
No cheating.

***** I have been assured that a game will occur if there are respondants (one per location) *****
so lord kareless, RESPOND...
