Seems the only way to win is not to play at all.

Tank Battle? OGRE?

[His Boy Elroy]

i dont think so...

it had really crappy graphics, and the tanks couldnt move, or could barely move. i cant remember which. You had to measure the angle and power of your shots and try to hit the other guys. It was kinda like the game Worms a little bit.

[/ QUOTE ]Great game, great game. Microsoft once released a version of that as a QBASIC demo, called Gorillas. The projectiles were exploding bananas.

Scorched Earth sounds like the game you're thinking off, with the option to buy weapons and shields etc between rounds.
There were actually simpler versions that predated that - no special weapons, just wind speed and hills to shoot over; one hit and you win.

To get back on topic, I bet the computer was getting upgraded during the downtime years.

[Neil S]

Oh Scorched Earth, I remember that one. There was a copy of that at my high school's computer lab, heh.
