- Well I read an article on Empire Deluxe in a magazine whose name I forget
- ("Strategy Plus"?). There are some new pieces (armor, bombers, airfields),
- configurable worlds (wrap around), Explore mode (versus random), better modem
- support and possibly network support. I hope that helps. No word if this will be
- availble for the Atari. Also don't think it's from Interstel anymore.
