Braddock,

Where are the instructions?  Looked around your link and did not find anything about the game itself.  Do you have another link that describes the original game?  Is it a space combat game or land warfare?  Searching for Dominions gives results for many games mostly board and card games. I tried searching for BBSDoorGames and all I could find where zip files but no descriptions.  I remember playing VGA planets with a group when it first came out and that was a blast.
