Empire Master™ is a computerized wargame for the Macintosh™.   You start out with a single city in an unknown world.  Your city builds units which move out to explore the world, finding and conquering more cities.  When you capture more cities they will build more units for you.  Eventually you will build transports to cross the sea and capture cities on different islands.  Air units can quickly map the area near your cities, but their range is limited by the amount of fuel they can carry.

As you build up your empire, the enemy will be working on another empire.  Eventually your forces will collide and the enemy has no intention of tolerating your existence!  If your empire is too small and weak it will be quickly devoured.  Only if you quickly build up your production capacity and develop a large and effective military will it be possible to save your empire from total annihilation.

Empire Master will run on any Macintosh with enough memory.  A minimum of one megabyte of memory is recommended.  Macintosh system version 6.0 or later is required and some features require system version 7.0 or later and will be disabled otherwise.
