Description:

Welcome to Requiem for Empire.

Requiem for Empire is a strategic wargame/role play simulation,
played over e-mail. There are fifteen player slots at the start of the game.

What is Requiem for Empire?

Requiem for Empire is set around the planet Pratovar, after a near-
apocalyptic nuclear catastrophe. The fleets have been scrambled to
evacuate the refugees of the Pratovian race from the dying world, and
begin a new existence. The war between the Savatch Union and the
Kalarian Federation rages in the stars above, as the nations of
Pratovia scrape together what little remains of their great
civilizations. You, as a leader of one of the nations on the Kalarian-
led Western Bloc or the Savatch-led Proletarian Entente, have the
choice to lead your nation to its new destiny.

The dawn of a new era comes by the silence made by atom bombs on the
scarred earth below. In the darkness of space, new challenges and
evils threaten to bring a final destruction to the race that escapes
the annihilation it scathed itself by. There is a fate, to every
nation, a reason to every war, a final peace to be won.

"I hope they think about us; I hope they think about what happened
here. I hope they bury it; everything, this entire planet. It didn't
work, this magnificent failure. They should give the Empire a nice
funeral; toss them in their caskets with due honors and throw on them
a few laurels. They should write a good hymn for them to remember us
by.

A requiem for empire."

-Almedius IV, Regent of Cassovia
