- Space Empire Elite
Space Empire Elite or SEE is a multi-player
bulletin board system strategy game forAtari ST BBSes. In Space Empire Elite, players rule an empire which they expand by purchasing planets or conquering other empires. Players are responsible for maintenance of their military and planets as well as feeding the population and the army. The goal is to become the largest, most powerful empire and remain so for as long as possible.One of SEE's key features is that it can be setup for "intergalactic," or inter-BBS, play. In this mode, players on a BBS are part of the same "galaxy" and work more as a team, trying to destroy other galaxies.
