Jeesh,  at that price I am really tempted to part with mine.  

It did not come in a regular box though, it is in a cardboard envelope instead.

I am sure you will find a seller soon at that price.

Oh yeah, it is a great game, good graphics and sound with lots of fun, one or two player, and IIRC, you can also play via null modem cable against another player, instead of sharing a split screen.

I bought this game when I lived in Germany, but as I'm away on a business trip until Thursday I can't verify that I still have the box.  I'm don't want to sell my copy (if I still have it), but if you just need a scan of the box and manual then I'll be willing to help if I can (for free).

No problem, I was just trying to save you $60.  I guess you must collect original games.  :)

Good luck hunting for it.

I used to play it by regular modem against someone across town. Fun to make red splats when you run someone over.  :destroy:  :destroy:  :destroy:  :destroy:  :python:

@weirdammi,

Yeah, try not to run over your own troops when they are running to your tanks or you will make more of those red splats.
