Good Lord! We just got down arguing over the merits of whether or not
a game should multitask and is HD installable! A good couple hundred
messages we're devoted to the topic and it was Powermonger's lack of
these features that started the whole flame war to begin with! How you
could possibly have missed the searing messages flying back and forth
is amazing to me! One last time, and listen closely as not to miss it:

NO! Powermonger is NOT HD installable. It is NOT a multitasking game.
It DOES run on an accelerated Amiga! (Tested on an A3000 under 1.3.
Runs AMAZINGLY fast though!)

Now, can we get back to dicussing the finer points of the game instead
of bickering over whether or not it multitasks, etc?

Sheeeesh!
