Conquer version 4.0 seems to have problems when it runs out of nations slots.
The previously mentioned newlogin() problem is one manifestation.
If you use the entire npc nations file, you are only left with one free
nation.  This means that you can only add one more and if a revolt occurs
it really corrupts the system by trying to create a new nation.  I haven't
looked into the cause but have just commented out a bunch of the npcs.
