	Powermonger  is actually Bullfrog's followup to Populous, but
	PM looks much better with the ability to scroll and zoom the
	playarea. And unlike Populous, it is more of a military
	'simulation'. I does, however, have some similarities to its
	'father'. The game is totally icon-controlled and involves
	small people and buildings. After reading a preview of this
	game, I think it will be a new bestseller for Bullfrog.
