There was a migration due to server upgrade and in the process some (all?) files got marked as "registration required" for downloading. Thats been fixed.

There is a lot of good stuff here and I have recently gotten back to my Apple II roots with the purchase of several systems - IIe, IIgs, IIc, IIc+ and II+. Please let me know.

Though I managed to locate the said DOS version of the game, and checked the "authencity" on the said period. The read.now file of the archive in question is dated 16-Jan-1992, and the program with copy protection circumvended 20-Jun-1991, the animation files 24-Aug-1989. It does point to the approximate period in question, but without a complete confirmation, I am not so sure if it is really "reclassied freeware", but however, it could have been true that it was released for a specific period of that release.

If this is true, it's worth nothing there's both an 8-bit Apple II version, and a GS-specific version (I have both versions on hand if an archive is needed). It was published by Interplay who's still around. Anyone want to follow up on this?

Some programming software (ugh, I can't remember the names now). I have to pull out the old csa2 TCP site and look at what else there was.
