  Are you insane? I tried Lords of Conquest in the store, and I think it
stinks. I had seen the ads, and I knew the graphics weren't going to be much,
but when I actually saw it, the graphics looked like *bad* Atari 8-bit
graphics. The game interfaced wasn't too bad, but I didn't like it. The sound
(which I prefered off) was bad and annoying.

  I would not reccommend this game to anybody who likes/loves Risk. I am a
devotee of Risk, and I didn't like Lords of Conquest one _single_ bit.
