        Imperialism Demo

Welcome to the Imperialism Preview Demo.  
You must run the demo through Win95.  
This demonstration version was created 
to provide you with an opportunity to 
experience the general look and feel of 
Imperialism.  Several shortcuts and 
allowances were made to make this demo 
easy to play.  By making the demo easier 
we have eliminated some of the early
challenges that will be provided in the 
final retail version of the game.  Rest 
assured that all the challenges and the
ability to play at more difficult levels 
will be provided in the final retail 
version of Imperialism.  Many of the 
final features are not available in this 
version.

You will only be able to play for the 
first ten years of the game, just enough 
to get the flavor.  There is extensive 
online help to get you started.  If you 
need to consult the online help press 
the "?" button which is found in the 
upper right corner on most of the game 
screens.

If your Win95 Taskbar appears in the 
game, ensure that your task bar settings 
are set to "autohide" and NOT set to 
"always on top." To check, move your 
cursor over the taskbar and click the 
right mouse button.  Select "Properties" 
to bring up the Taskbar Properties 
dialogue box.  Make sure "Always on Top" 
is not checked. "Auto hide" may be 
checked.  If you make a change, make sure 
you left mouse click on "Apply" before 
exiting.


Some known bugs:

Occasionally in the tactical battle 
moving a unit may cause a crash. If you 
place a civilian unit in a minor power 
in which you have an embassy and order 
them to work, the game may crash.

Imperialism will ship in the Fall 1997.
