Description
A homemade wargame for bulletin boards, written by Nikhil Ndiaye in 1996.
Provenance
Deposited by East Whiteport Central Library, which had held it unread for years. The drive’s circuit board had failed and was replaced with one from a matching drive. A handful of files survive, from a much larger whole.
