Diplomat combat simulation utility for VGA Planets version 4
Diplomat is basically a script generator. The scripts can be used to Master a new universe with all units in the same location, whereupon they fight. Since the combat is resolved by the real Host.exe program, and viewed with the normal VCR program, the results should be true to life.
