Description:

In Total Conquest you control a kingdom in a fantasy world setting,
competing and interacting with other player run kingdoms. Total Conquest
is a turn-based game. The player has to �submit his orders� (ie make all
actions he/she thinks necessary) using our Graphical User Interface, and
then �save� his orders online. The day of the deadline all orders from all
players are simultaneously processed, and the results are emailled back to
the players on what is called a turn report.

The graphical client is free and runs in Java, but you can also use the
text-only web client in conjunction with hex paper.  The graphical client
needs the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 1.3.1_05 and Java Web
Start 1.2 which are freely available online.  Solo and mini games are free
of charge but the standard game has improved features and draws more
talented competition.

In Standard and Mini games, the deadline is the last day you can submit
your orders.  An automatic mail will be send to your email address 24
hours before the deadline expires (if you have not already submitted your
orders) to remind you that the game is about to be processed.  You can
change your orders as many times as you want until the deadline expires.
Solo games have no deadlines and the game gets in the queue to be
processed as soon as you click on the �save� button.

Check out Total Conquest.
