ie. that potentially-any-good-but-actually-quite-disappointing programme on BBC2 where contestant types get to take charge of Hannibal's elephants and command the armies. Well, does anyone remember a couple of games for the Arc that let you do similar? One was called Waterloo, the other Dreadnoughts. I'd like to have a go with these - anyone reckon they're still available anywhere? |

Still, at least it's better than having some tit running round pretending he's surrounded by dinosaurs Well, does anyone remember a couple of games for the Arc that let you do similar?Nope I'd like to have a go with these - anyone reckon they're still available anywhere?Haven't spotted them on any of the various coverdisks and CD's I've got. Were they free or commercial? *goes off to do a search* |

Waterloo was certainly available for the BBC - I've got a copy of it somewhere. The graphics were nothing special (even for then) but I think most of the code was focussed on the AI, which wasn't too bad. |
