Build 18P Has Arrived!

It has been a while since I have been able to muster up enough time to get a build going. This addresses a lot of issues. One of the key ones is the Classic AI is not Enhanced Set ready, as it can now use submerged subs. So if you have used the classic in the enhanced set, stay a little more alert as the waters are no longer as safe as they used to be. This version also has several bug fixes and minor enhancements. I want to thank everyone for their messages of support and bug reports. I really appreciate it. I hope you find this build enjoyable. since it has been a while, so hopefully I did not miss a step and it all crashes and burns. If it does, we will put the fires out this month and release another patch. Send me an email. For Steam people, updating should be easy. For itch folks, don't forget to check this thread: https://killerbeesoftware.itch.io/empire-deluxe-combined-edition/devlog/16579/itch-users-guide-for-updating-your-game Here is the full list of adjustments for Build 18: Build 18

Empire Deluxe Combined Edition is the latest in the classic Empire Series of games, which has spanned almost five decades.

Empire Deluxe is a game about taking cities. Starting with just one, the city enables a commander to produce units. These units in turn can directly attack or support the attack of more cities. Your imperialistic desires are not satisfied until you have taken every city on the map.

Then there is an added complication:

There can be multiple opponents with the same goal. You cannot work with them to capture all of the cities. They don't want to work with you. You must work against them. You spend a good amount of time preventing them from taking your cities, and you try your best to capture their cities.

So come back to the classic 4x strategy wargame that has inspired so many other games!

Features include

4 Built-In Unit Sets, each a progression from the previous: Basic, Standard, Advanced and Enhanced.
Anywhere from 6 to 30 unit types, some including land, naval, air, submarine, artillery, engineers, satellites, missiles unit types.
3 uniquely different AI players
Optional additional rules and victory conditions.
Maps of virtually unlimited size
Play Solitaire or Against Humans in Hot Seat, Email and Network Play.
Built-In map/scenario editor.
Built-In Unit Set Modification Editor allows you to make adjustment to the unit sets.
AI player source code available online to make your own AI players.
World Building C# source code available online to make your own map makers.
Hours of Fun, for many even as much as hundreds or thousands! And a game you may still be playing in 2045 on Mars. (Interplanetary play not yet implemented).
