Yes please, I am having the same problem with the could not save preferences error...anyone know what that is all about and what I need to do to fix it?

I have loved the original since I was a kid, and I would love to give this a whirl as my Amiga is starting to show its age. (space bar along with other keys refuse to work anymore)

Ok, the easiest way (especially for computer noobs like me) is simply dragging the exe onto a dosbox shortcut. Drag the Install file over the shortcut, and configure it. The default settings will probably be fine. Then run the game. Pity we don't have a cracked version for this

Thankyou arete! It turns out I was loading the EMPIRE.exe first then it would ask for the ECONFIG exe, and for some reason doing it this way, it wouldn't let me save the preferences. I did the configuration first snd voila! it worked.

Again many thanks, I think I'm going to enjoy this one alot, so many new features!

I've been playing this game since the early nineties, and with a brief intermission of not having a 3.5" drive and a the game popping up on this site, I keep coming back to it at least once a year (along with Civ1). While graphics are simple, the game play is excellent. Winning the WW2 scenario must be done every 5 years.
