That was in another time, Dosraider. Nowaday, they'll never consider doing that. There is much more publicity and, more importantly (for them), money to do by releasing it as a console game or by selling it again!

Yay! 1st post since unprotection!
 I've played the freecol version before, but it just didn't capture the "look and feel" of the original.Now, if only I could figure out how to speed it up in DosBox... |

Use ctrl-F11 and ctrl-F12 to toggle speed in DOSbox. Happy gaming!

One of my favorite games ever. I dnloaded it yesterday and thought to have a little go, just for the old time sake. Of course, I spent a few hours playing and saying 'That's it, just one more turn.'
 Now I remember why I failed a few exams back in 90ies

In fact you don't really need to mount a floppy, the install also works fine from something as:
c:\temp\ or whatever..... Simply unzip all the files to your dosbox virtual C folder in let say a \temp\ folder , run dosbox, mount your virtual C, do a cd temp and run install. Just tested it out, works fine. But yes indeed, also works if you mount the temp folder as floppy drive. BTW, also accept 'soundblaster pro' when asked, that's the right one.

Some old games absolutely need to be installed from the A: drive. Learning to do it the right way the first time is always the best solution if you don't want to run into problems later on.

The drive letters you assign to drives and directories in DOSBox have nothing to do with your real drive letters and your real drives. You can mount a directory as two different drives. You can mount it as a fake floppy drive. You can mount it as a fake CD-ROM drive. You can mount something on your X drive as C, your F drive as D, your DVD drive H as E and so on.
