Empire is a turn-based 4X wargame, where players command armies of
|
|
units which they use to explore the game world, control territory, and
|
|
attack opponents. The game world consists of "sectors", which may be
|
|
designated as agricultural, industrial, etc. Control of these sectors
|
|
grants the player a variety of raw and manufactured materials, which
|
|
they may use to construct dozens of unit types.
|
|
|
|
In each round, the players submit their commands for the activities of
|
|
their units to the central server, which executes all of the commands
|
|
either simultaneously or in a sequence. Rounds can last anywhere from
|
|
a few hours to a day. As such, a full game can take much longer than
|
|
modern 4X games, depending on the size of the game world; "Blitz" games
|
|
may last a few hours, while typical games last months and larger games
|
|
can take up to a year to complete.
