On the subject of vms-empire, it seems like there was an unofficial port to MSDOS in 1985, based on the same VMS source code. I poked around some abandonware sites and found what appears to be the version 5.0 mentioned here:

But so far have been unable to locate version 5.1. It was allegedly uploaded to public BBS, so it should still be floating around somewhere...

I also tried the Interstel port and it's *much* easier to play (it even has mouse support), but I still prefer the old school ASCII display...
