Ogre is a strategy game by Steve JAckson Games, available at fine game
retailers nationwide, MOre information is avilable at
http://www.sjgames.com/ogre/

Steve and Company are very protecive of their intelectual property (as
they should be) and any implementation of ogre needs to be run past
Steve Jackson Games for approval. I'm note sure if the ASCII games was
an official port or not.

I really enjoy Ogre, and would gladly work with someone on getting
this approved by Steve & Co.
