It Lives! This build addresses the issues with losing the file-share server's capability.
One of the things that drew me to Empire and Empire Deluxe way back when was the capability to make your own maps and scenarios. This afforded me countless extra hours of game play as I explored the creations of others. This was pretty rare back then, wi...
.and with that the holiday brings out Santa Sarge! Killer Bee Software's carefully crafted marketing tool. I continue to maintain a fairly low profile. My time is still very limited due to several life events. Fortunately, Build 18 has turned out to be quite s…
Good news! I am now moving towards build 18 of Empire Deluxe Combined Edition. I now have a new build environment and am working on several things that have been out standing and then a couple of extra things I have been meaning to put back in. I am a little r…
It has been a while since I have been able to muster up enough time to get a build going. This addresses a lot of issues. One of the key ones is the “Classic AI” is not Enhanced Set ready, as it can now use submerged subs. So if you have used the classic in th…
Just wanted to give a heads up to those fans that like to stroll down memory lane with the kinder, gentler vibes of games gone by. Today Xeen Music has released remastered recordings of the MIDI sounds of Empire Deluxe from 1993. These tracks were written by a…
It has been a very busy year for me. I don't like to put personal issues out there and want to say I am fine, but there were multiple personal life changing events that have occurred over the course of this year that caused a re-alignment of how my life is wor…
At some point in your life you recognize that you are Made. For Sarge, that moment has finally been obtained with the introduction of the Empire Deluxe T-Shirt series, produced by The Mandala Girl. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/c…

Build #017 has been released. This is a small fix addressing an email issue that came up after the Unity 2017 upgrade. The collection of maps is getting larger. If you have not browsed them in game for a while, you should take a peek. This can be accessed from…

Today I will treat you to my action-packed, superbly narrated and obviously well prepared demo of sending fileshare turns. https://youtu.be/tB1mSJJSXUw Be aware that I play BOTH sides of the game in the demo, but I wanted to make sure you saw how it behaves. S…
So late last month I wanted to announce that “Fileshare Play” was going to be introduced in build 16. Since that time it has been undergoing testing both internally with me and with a couple of 3 player games (which include a mod) with an independent group. I …
I am happy to announce that the next version of Empire Deluxe will have a new Multi-player option, and that will be what I am calling “Fileshare Play”. This will be very similar to email play, except the game will automatically be sent and received via http ov…

Today is the release of build15, which is actually a small patch up to fix a few issues that have been uncovered since the production release. The most notable of this fixes is a network error arising from the use of map labels in Network games, causing out ne…
Well, I guess it is officially a game. Build 14 marks version P 5.0.14 where the P stands for “Production”. Just what does this mean? It means my belief is the game has reach a high level of stability/quality, which was the primary goal of Early Access. That d…
