There have been two incarnations since: Warlords II and Warlords II Deluxe, and Warlords III is due for release by Broderbund in August. If you liked the first one, you'll love Deluxe. They've kept the same basic game engine but have improved the graphics (although nothing near III) and added additional features to make it more playable, including Quests and random scenarios which can be played cross-platform via E-Mail. They also improved the way navies were dealt with and added some other cool stuff. There's plenty of info on Deluxe at Bob Heeter's web site at http://www.princeton.edu/~rfheeter/w2home.html and Martijn Dashorst's at http://www.cs.utwente.nl/~dashorst/warlords/warroom.htm and on Warlords III (including screen shots) at http://www.warlords3.com/ Have fun! _/_/_/ CompuPick - "Knowing the TRUE Line" _/_/_/ _/ http://www.CompuPick.com/ _/ _/ / _/ _ _ _ _ Gary S.
