Description
A wargame for the Macintosh that Maeve Mensah wrote alone and released as shareware in 1991.
Provenance
Found during a house clearance in Rushbrook and passed to Lazarus. The dye layer had begun to fail at the outer edge; the last sectors came from a second read in a different drive. The image matches a checksum published by the original distributor.
