Just managed to upload the site to Angelfire.  I will be updating the site and continuing its construction in around December as I am kind of busy with school work.  Please come back soon for more updates.

Preface

    Master Of Magic is a very old DOS game.  It is the first game that I had when I first got a computer with a Harddisk.  And I still play it sometime.  I guess it's random generating of maps is one of the reasons why I like it so much.  The map is different every time a new game is set.  Most of the games nowadays use pre-set/-generated maps which can be edited.  This somehow reduces my interest.  In addition, the spells that you can research are also randomly chosen from the number of spell books you pick.  The "replayablity" of this game is very high.  However, the graphics and sounds are not very good as it is very very old.  I really would want to see it being remade into a Window version with good graphics and sounds.  MoM2 from SimTex and MicroProse would even be better.  But after all these years of waiting, I don't think it's possible so I just have to make do with MoM.
    When I started surfing the Net, I realised that there were a number of sites dedicated to MoM.  There were even tournaments of MoM and a utility that enable Modem link for multi-player.  However they seemed to be dead now, and the utility still has some bugs in them.  It really is a pity.
