Anybody remeber the classic space strategy game "Reach For The Stars" ?  I had
a copy on my C64 (I had a PET 4016 before that!) but there were also versions
for the "others".

Is there a version for the Amiga ?  A similar game (1) ?  I can't remember who
made it.

(1)  RFTS is a game played between four people (usually you and three computer
     players).  You are a space lord/tyrant who wants to build an empire.  You
     have to keep the population happy on your various plantes, build more
     colonies and fight battles with the other Emperors.  Excellent game.
