What are you using to run the game?

If it's DOSBox try pressing Ctrl+F10.

Ah... an interesting game. Still, it doesn't last too long - as soon as I became Emperor, nobody would ever try to attack me. The choices are limited then:
a) To go around the galaxy and pown everyone in your way, so that every planet is ruled by family member.
b) To stay on Planet Empire indifinately, doing nothing.
c) To stay on Planet Empire indifinately, being hostile towards any incoming visitors, most likely forcing them into attacking you.

...but it's all for nothing. Even the more difficult scenarios or starting as, for example, a King/Queen... just... meh. Eventually you just end up waiting till the Emperor/Empress goes away from his/her system, attack, take the money, do the same few times so you can buy a fleet as big as theirs and attack.

Of course, they still have a big chance of winning. But eventually you will win, become new ruler and... it begins to get boring. Big time.
