Powermonger runs fine on my 3000.  However, you have to boot from the game disk,
and you can't save your games to a hard disk.  The game is quite cool; the
protection is quite a bitch however.  It's a close call to decide if the
fun of playing the game is worth the pain in the ass of running the game.
