thank very much, i'll try all the options, i've actually been waiting and trying to find a way to play this game since i saw my cousin play it aproximately 8 years ago, i already played it a while without sound and its amazing, i don't believe there's a strategy game today that compares to this one, this is kind of like a strategy civ building rpg, hopefully with this i'll make the sound work, vdmsound works for win95?

Exactly as Dosraider said. But since you are using Win95 then read the quoted guide like I said. It's made especially for you and I used it myself quite often when I was still running Win98SE.

the sound works in the intro now and I managed to configure the sounds cards but it doesnt let me play the game, it still tells me I need more memory. I tried to edit the config.sys like the (excellent) guide told me but each time i tried it said I needed either more conventional memory or expanded memory the exact quantities varied from 583k to 2700, any thoughts?

Did you try section 2.1.1 and 2.1.2?

If you don't have those files installed they should be hidden somewhere on the Win95/98 installation CD.

Edit: Also, the readme.txt file coming with the game give out quite a fair amount of hints toward configuring sound and memory in a DOS environement.

If there isn't enough conventional memory, try running the game "in DOS mode" (rebooting). If there isn't enough yet, take out the drivers for CD-ROM support for example. You can find all the options in the executable's properties.

If I recall correctly it should be the build button.

No you don't have to choose a paticular type of terrain, it has to be 3 squares away from a town. I think you click on the settlers before you move then I believe, then hit the build button.
