Master of the Empire for OS/2

As Emperor, you control a vast civilization that spreads to the far reaches of
the Planet. With billions of different planets to conquer the possibilities of
this game are endless; you will never play the same game twice! You control
every aspect of your empire: Its prosperity, foreign affairs, and even
resource allocations. You decide the overall size of your civilization: where
you want to expand, how much you expand, and when you do it. You can build
relations with other empires, or move out the military forces and go head to
head in combat.

One of the most powerful additions to Master of the Empire is the World
Builder. The World Builder allows the user to create maps from the ground up,
place armies, create stories behind scenarios, for each scenario made. Editing
the maps is easy: World Builder contains a multi-layered map editor with a
familiar and very easy to use interface. You can make maps ranging from small
to large .
