Bush's Republican=Neo-con for all intent and purpose. be afraid. -
Nope. Was I the only one that played this one?
Clues
1. Late '80s, C64 (perhaps others, but I doubt it).
2. RPG, non-standard.
3. Non-standard is a telling clue here.
4. I had lots of trouble with this one. You will lose party members continually.
5. Combat was realtime and preventing friendly fire was difficult due to characters bent on walking into other characters firing path.
6. Big clue: Sci-Fi theme.We're sorry, the voices in my head are not available at this time. Please try back again soon.Comment

one of the 'Mega-Traveller' games .....the first one -'Zhodani conspiricy' ?

Is it the Buck Rogers game from SSI?~ If Tehben spits eggs at you, jump on them and throw them back. ~ Eventis ~ Eventis Dungeons & Dragons 6th Age Campaign: Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3, Chapter 4: (Unspeakable) Horror on the Hill ~Comment

That would have been my first guess, but no. And I'm surprised that it did not come up yet, given the clues...but IIRC the combat was not realtime in BR.We're sorry, the voices in my head are not available at this time. Please try back again soon.Comment

That's right... Buck Rogers was turn-based.
I seem to recall a games workshop "space marines" type game, but I can't remember the name.

Space 1889 ? - Victorian England in Space although i can't remember which format i played on and i might be a few years out with the year - so not an inspired guess really.
The other one that springs to mind is Laser squad but that was turn based i think.Comment

I found the name of the game I was thinking of: Space Crusade~ If Tehben spits eggs at you, jump on them and throw them back. ~ Eventis ~ Eventis Dungeons & Dragons 6th Age Campaign: Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3, Chapter 4: (Unspeakable) Horror on the Hill ~Comment

Found?Comment

he he 'Found' is a bad thing here
Gooogle-ing forfits any guess's you may have made and even browseing retro sights can count against you(as i found out....).
So just deny everything and say it was a slip of the tongue(finger!)
I didn't know they did a C64 version of Space Cruade - it was one of my favourite team/2 player games on the Amiga, i seem to remember the combat was turn based though
(where as Space Hulk was Real time - with pause effects)

Not found (or at least, not confirmed), I just couldn't remember the exact name of the game I was guessing, so I did a search and provided a link.
The "browsing of retro sites" happened after the guess(by way of confirmation), not before (as ammunition for scattershot guessing).~ If Tehben spits eggs at you, jump on them and throw them back. ~ Eventis ~ Eventis Dungeons & Dragons 6th Age Campaign: Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3, Chapter 4: (Unspeakable) Horror on the Hill ~Comment

Well it looks like a good shot to me, if it was on the C64 that is.

I'm pretty sure it was. Then again it was my friend's Commodore 64 that I played it on... I had a Vic-20.Originally posted by DrSpike
