I had read a bit about it and was waiting to receive it with open arms. I purchased it and was not disappointed. It was a good game, space and planetary battles, strategic fleet movements, colony management and production. I was playing it for a good amount of time during the summer of '97. Really enjoyed it then and for a good bit afterwards.
I'd tried once or twice to get it back running on modern pc's but had to no real success.
Some versions of DOSBox make it work. But I've not had the motivation to recreate a virtual win 95/98 pc to see if that would work with it.... never mind get the old pc out of the attic.
A while ago I came across this while looking for info on running the game on newer OS's. A Java recreation of the old game!! At this stage its almost complete. With a lot of improvments and updated features!
Grats to the team ( and main dude ) who have gotten so far with this project! And for allowing myself the ability to relive the game that gave great joy ;)
Here is trailer for that Java rebuild:
