Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded).

This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

I was a bit disappointed with Empire I, which was too simplistic, too much like RISK, too unreliable, and not all the rules made sense as written.

However, Conquest of the Empire II is awesome, and makes the game well worth the purchase!  Its got the perfect balance of strategy, empire-building, and military action. It offers various possible victory strategies, and a lot of variants. We've only played one game, but I'm willing to bet dollars to doughnuts that, like my favourite wargame History of the World, no two games of Empire will end up playing out the same way.
