  I would like the basic 2 player game, black and white, where the 
enemy is in small letters and the good guys (me) are in caps.  
Any suggestions as to how to get this done?

I'm trying to do the same thing without success.  I got hooked on 
this game many years ago.  I had file that worked that was 
emailed to me by Mr. Bright.  I lost it when I had computer 
issues.

I've tried multiple downloads and I've been trying DosBox and 
can't seem to configure it properly.  I wish there was a simple 
file that could be downloaded that works with current versions of 
windows.  I'd go buy a Mac just for this game if that would work.

I was able to get emp110 to run in DosBox in Window 10.  Here is 
what i did.
1) Download emp110 to a folder called c:\games
2) Start DosBox
3) Mount the game folder
    mount c c:\games\emp110
4) changed to the newly mounted c drive
5) start empire.exe


I found that when I saved the game, it was written to the b.map 
file.  But, empire expects the save file to be called empire.dat. 
  So, for the next session, i renamed b.map to empire.dat.  After 
that, i was able to load my game and resume playing.
