Req: Battle Squadron intro disk?

25 December 2003, 21:00

Hi, years ago I had Battle Squadron and Im sure it was a 2 disker and the disks were one for game and the other was the intro and I can vaguely remember the hand drawn B&W intro.

While the game is very common I have never seen the intro available, so has anyone got this to share?

hmm
in tosec : version with 2 disks (cr TT), but disk 1 + disk 2 ~ same size that one disk version !?!
and on disk 2 boot -> StormLord ?!?

no version in CAPS

but, I have a version "cr captain paranoia" with a b&w little "intro" (like the end of game) !!!

in the Zone

Battle Squadron is in CAPS, although perhaps you were talking about the old 0.07 tosec dat.

Anyway Battle Squadron is only 1 disk (I dumped it myself) and it does have the black & white intro.

I'd post it in the zone if I was allowed.

Thanks for the info and download, jeezz my memory must be getting worse, I really thought there was just an intro floppy as well as the game, maybe its because the version adf I have only seems to show the game, I never seen the intro on it, I will try the one from the zone and see if its any different.

thanks again

You just need to wait, it doesn't come up when the game loads, you just have to sit around a little.

Yes. It took me 10 years to notice that the Amiga version also had the cool intro that the Mega-Drive version has.

I would always say "The Amiga version is much better, but the Mega-Drive version has an intro"

Until someone pointed me how stupid I was

Well It seems the ADF I have by Freestyle does not have the intro unlike the one in the zone by captain paranoia which does, so I can only assume thats why I always thought it was 2 Disks I had years ago and I did have the original.

I also find it strange that someone else had the same 2 disk opinion from Kodoichi's link in the forum. I would not have guessed there would have been a thread on this subject I thought it was only me who thought about this subject

So it seems from opinions and evidence in this and the other thread that there was only one disk, a great history lesson for a Battle Squadron player.

Thanks for the other version bobbybearing

Now I'll go beat the Barrax Empire..

Thanks
