I haven't compiled Empire 2.2 yet, but there's another Empire (which appears to be very different in many ways) that has planes, aircraft carriers, subs, armies, etc. that are all displayed graphically. There are two types of terrain only in that game (it's called Empire 2.1, if I'm not mistaken) - Land and Sea, and the fights are largely based on luck. My question to all interested parties is: Is Empire 2.2, in fact, the sequel to Empire 2.1 with all the changes and additions that appear to have been made in a version whose version number has been modified to reflect what would normally be negligable changes, or are we talking about two different Empires here? If anyone can clarify my confusion, it would be greatly appreciated. (This message should have been posted on comp.sys.amiga.games, and all further correspondence from myself on this subject shall be posted to that newsgroup. I'd encourage all respondants who chose to respond publicly to do the same, for whatever it's worth...) ++ Q ++ (roholdr@ccu.umanitoba.ca)
