Kelly,

Yes, I would consider the Empire games to be in the public domain -- after 
all, they were published about 20 years ago, and the original copyright 
holder, EduWare Services, no longer exists.

Unfortunately, I don't know where to get copies off of the Internet, and I 
don't know how to put them on the internet myself.  People do ask me for 
copies of my old games from time to time, but I don't have the time these 
days to find ways of getting it to them individually.

Anyway, thanks for you inquiry and for visiting my web site.

Special thanks to Kelly for bring this to my attention and to the author
David Mullich for placing the A2 game titles into the public domain.
Forthose of you that wish to varify this - you have the info for such 
noted above.

Cheers,
Tom
