Hmm sounds like it might be an Avalon Hill game,
since most of thier games were based on board games?

I have looked high and low for someone such as
yourself on the internet. You are my only hope!
I am looking for an older computer game that I
got to play when I was first introduced to computers. This would be
around '94 or '95 and it was played on an "IBM" clone. What makes
this complicated is I do not know the name of the game. All I can tell you is
that it was played like a board game. There could be anywhere from two
to six or eight players at most; either human or computer. Each player played
in rotation, and the object of the game was to conquer the "know
world". The "know world" consisted on a number of maps you could use and
you had the option of playing under a number of various scenarios from
mythical times, sword and sorcery, civil war, or ever world wars I &
II. Each player had a leader which was in command of his main army and
could have special capabilities or "tool". You were also awarded secondary
leaders once you had achieved a certain level of success. The object was
to conquer all the other cities in the world until there was only you, your
hoard, and all your cities. Then you had won. There were some other more
specific details of the game: like the cities each made a specified type of
"asset" which could be modified under certain conditions ($) and your leader
had the ability to go around to "shines" and other special sites to gain
money, attributes, or special "tools". That is about all I can remember of
the game except I have never played a computer game I liked more and would
love to find it. Please help me if you can, or refer me to anyone else you
can think of who may be able to help me. Thank you for your
time.
Sincerely,
Ray
