Whenever a new game is started on the HP3000, an interactive dialog is started that allows the user to set the parameters for the game. Welcome to the game of Empire.
Empire is a continuing world exploration and conquest game.
Up to 255 players manage their respective nations in an attempt to gain more world power. Each player starts with meager holdings but is able to expand their initial territory. With careful planning and skillful statesmanship your industrial base will develop enabling you to build artillery, aircraft and naval shipping. With ships, you can explore the world and spread your population far and wide. The game requires data files which, in the case of large games, can take quite a bit of CPU and wall time to construct.
