o i have to send a quick message here! Powermonger was one of my all time favourite games (on the Amiga 500+)

Absolutely loved this game, how huge was it?! i think i got half way through the world map then got stumped! extremely hard on the later levels but so unbelievably enjoyable and replayable.

i am just slightly annoyed with Strobe for only giving the game a rating of 4, what were you thinking?! LOL

it's a shame this game isn't available for download, why is it protected it's so old now it surely isn't for sale anymore? (would love to play this game again...)

the game was released on Atari ST and Amiga in 1990, the PC release was 1992.

I remmeber playing it, but struggled with crappy instructions. I would love to have been able to download it and try to learn this game again

Powermonger is not protected anymore and so downloadable again.

Are you running it in DOSBox? Because if so, I think the command to slow it down is CTRL+F11.

I think that there is a speed control in the game's option menu too.

you need to launch pm.bat, not game.exe

Has the copy protection been cracked on Powermonger?

Alternatively, is there a list of the correct answers somewhere?

(i'll try google right now anyway but might as well ask.)

edit: Seems is is cracked but only runs well with the dosbox cycles up at about 50,000. The map doesn't zoom out very far and resolution is really low, even using pm.bat.
