Imperial Space Command
Note: If you have trouble getting the game to run, here are some tips from Ed Kiser, one of the game's designers: "It must run under [pure] DOS; not any good in the DOS virtual box under Windows. The DOS must be booted to bypass any windows stuff that normally boots. The latest hardware is advancing to the point that even DOS 6.xx does not run completely properly, and so neither will ISC. My Pentium IV will not support DOS nor ISC. I run ISC by booting from a DOS 6.xx diskette from my older Pentium II machine, and since DOS 6 does not understand 32 bit FAT, that means the hard drive "does not exist", so the whole game has to be played on a RAM DRIVE, with a SAVE to DISKETTE at the end of the session. I still get hours of pleasure of playing ISC; hope others will also." If you would like to talk to Ed about the game (and maybe you'd like to even update it for modern computers ;), contact Ed Kiser at this e-mail address. He'd love to talk about the game! :)
