Hi guys, Just wondering if anyone has tried to play EDEE 4.003 with teams yet. I just started a game with my brother and a few friends. Seems like it will...
This is a warning to email players: I have just lost a 3-months email game and found that I have been cheated in the following way: EDEE permits multiple...
I will be out of the office starting 21/04/2005 and will not return until 22/04/2005. If your question is urgent please e-mail the medas help desk and they...
Couple of things which of course do not make your experiance any better: 1) Cheating is its own reward 2) Only play with people you know, (not easy if you...
Karawane: There is only one way to really defeat this problem. Don't play by email. Setup a server somewhere operated by a trusted third party. All players...
Christopher is completely right about the nature of email play, it is completely prone to this type of exploit. and it is not preventable. It has been like...
Not COMPLETELY or EASILY preventable, but didn't EDSecure create a shell that prevented the turn replay cheat for ED 3.11x? The key to that was controlling...
Ah yes I forgot about ED Secure saying it controlled replay with ED...but I don't remember how it purported to do so. Maybe Tim Roberts will speak out here...

I am always happy to know that these people are only cheating themselves with their attempts to bypass the challenge. And besides, isn't their cheating similar...
Hello fellow Empire Deluxe Series fans. A long while back I promised to setup a site where you would be able to enjoy EDEE to a fuller extent by being able to...
Thank you guys for the sympathy! I agree that email play cannot be absolutely safe against this form of cheating. However, I think some characters are just...

Hello All, I used to play Empire Deluxe all the time when it first came out. I even made a few maps and scenarios that got passed around the ED community...

Hi Geoff It is only my personal opinion of course, but perhaps you should down load the EDEE demo and play for a bit and see what you think. You can find it...
Hi Geoff, Everything he said. An Armored Cav unit. Why didn't I think of that. I was so enamored with my hovercraft, U2s, and fighter bombers. They will...
Hello Andrew, I think that is what I will do. I do have one question, though: can one still play the original game (or something close to it) if one purchases...
Hi Geoff You cannot play a saved game file out of EDIE in EDEE because the .svg file structure is different. But I think Mark (the author of EDEE) has some...
Hello Andrew, So, EDIE is compatible with the original, but EDEE is not? I downloaded the free trial for EDEE from killerbeesoftware.com. I like it; it looks...
"looks like you can do as much or as little with it as you like." That is the very key to it. Yes you can. Keep in mind the user interface is different and so...
Geoff, I prefer EDIE over EDEE. EDIE has most of the original ED3.12 code. The bugs are gone and there are very few new bugs. It has the same feel as ED, so...
Regarding conversion of maps, 3.12 maps (ED release 1993) can be converted to 3.5 maps(EDIE). 3.5 maps can be converted to 4.0 (EDEE). If you do not have EDIE,...
Not to mention that EDEE lacks the ability to accommodate more than a single player on one PC. This so-called "hot seat" play capability was removed in...
