Music
Overview
Empires currently has a small amount of music. We are looking to expand on this.
Artists
The following people have offered their talents:

What is music needed for?
Empires is divided into various segments:
- main menu (probably won't change)
- pre-game & voting period
- first few minutes
- after the first few minutes (currently no music at all)
- commander sudden-death mode
- post-game (win)
- post-game (loss)
Potentially, there could be a full in-game soundtrack if enough songs are created. This would be completely optional for the people that don't like music while they play.

Ideas
- Hold a music contest for the community if we can get enough interested participants.
- Ask other mods that already have music if their artists want to contribute to Empires as well.
