IMPORTANT!! - Before you do the following you should know this!
EMPEROR is no longer supported by EA. It is kept alive by the members here and all the people who still play.
YOU WILL NOT FIND THE SERVER FULL 24/7!
Most games are played in the evenings E.S.T. USA. The Best way to play is to set up a game using MSN
Emperor is really more like getting together with freinds. We all know each other here.
NEWBIES ARE ALWAYS WELCOME!! We are always willing to help you get started or get online.
WE ARE ALWAYS LOOKING FOR PEOPLE WHO LIKE THE BEST IN RTS! Because in our opinion Emperor is it.
