`17.Apr.2003` Michael Lanser (ANF)	Realms of Power - Internet Page Online The Internet page for the game Realms of Power was placed online today. There you'll find information about and screenshots of the game, and its state of development. Realms of Power is a round-based strategy game. It has a powerful resemblance to the game Civilization, and has a few characteristics of the game Colonization as well. The parameters of the game world are wideranging and generally adjustable. So it is left to you to decide if you play a cold or a war planet, if you prefer vast oceans or almost entirely land surfaces. 16 peoples are ready, to be played by or against humans. These are, for example, the Germans, the English, the French, the Romans, the Zulus, or also the Egyptians. The individual units (like airplanes, tanks, destroyers or battle vehicles) wait only to be built and sent against the enemy. But perhaps you would rather negotiate a peace and send a diplomat? In order to be able to build the individual units and the urban projects (such as churches, factories, barrracks, or harbors) the hard work of the steadily growing numbers of city folk, who process the differentiated raw materials (such as wood, stone, coal, or oil as well). And naturally it may also not be forgotten, to arrange the supply of food for the workers. In order to make adjustments to the quantities of raw materials, it is also possible to conduct trade with friendly peoples. But only as long as they do not become your enemies - and that happens sooner than maybe you would like, because the goal is to rule the world after all! Or do you prefer to conquer a neighboring planet with a few colonists. If this world can't be yours, then perhaps the next? System Requirements Minimum configuration: Amiga with OS3.1, 68020 @ 14 Mhz, 1 MB Chip, 16 MB FastRAM, graphic card, CD-ROM, hard-drive. Recommended configuration: Amiga with OS3.1, 68060 @ 50 Mhz, 2 MB Chip, 32 MB FastRAM, graphic card, CD-ROM, hard-drive. (ps) (Translation: dm) [News message: 17.

`17.Apr.2003` Guido Mersmann (ANF)	AmigaOS Game: BoulderDäsh RTX V5.14 - Rockford is Back! With version 5.14, the shareware game BoulderDäsh RTX is almost final. Almost all program parts have been reworked and rewritten. BoulderDäsh has become a bit faster and smaller through this, but also more compatible. Through some partially fundamental changes, it became possible for me to equip the game and level editor with additional functions that were missing for years and desired by many users. I'd like to point out once more that although I removed the keyfile routines and the associated limitations, BoulderDäsh is still shareware. Simultaneously, I'd like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to the many registered users. You've kept us going through the years! Version 5.14 is on the way to Aminet and should appear there by the next update. Guido Mersmann (ps) (Translation: dm) [News message: 17.
