+1 for Act Of War. If it is anywhere near as good as Rebelstar Raiders, then its gonna be good fun.

Also, Poing 7.14

Off the top of my head i can't think of any more yet. I reckon this pack is pretty well stocked now. Once i dig right in i will start looking and comparing titles with the Tosec set and see what i feel is missing, but its so big now there can't be much left out thats worth having. Got more installing to do, but can't wait to start playing later tomorrow.

Also, once i have this on the emulation PC and hooked up to my TV, i will ramp up the volume, bang on the room LEDs and grab a video, it'll be neat, promise.

Act of War - if you accept it is not commercial software so not as polished as some, there is some good fun to be had

Also, Poing - what a lovely little game that was.

...and what's all this got to do with my thread requesting gems for my collection?

You're not providing suggestions for me, instead trying to locate obscure Amiga titles for yourself

Please create your own thread, thank you.

A suggestion, new thread "coco55's requests" under this section.

From other thread

Hey Damien. You know, i got so stuck in looking through my old disklist last night, i didn't play a single game yet! Todays the day, i'm going to make sure of it

Anyway, as i mentioned in another thread somewhere, i have compiled a list of all the games i used to own which are not in your collection. Whether these have been recommended before, whether you'll like them, i don't know. But maybe some of these will help you get to that magic "update 50"

I've grabbed a link for each to help, HOL where possible, then Lemon, then somewhere else. Some might be tricky to find (Breakin' Briks maybe), i have marked a few i think are more worthy than the others too with *, ** or *** stars.

Here goes.
***Act Of War (PD)(Like Laser Squad)(https://hol.abime.net/5986)
*Arazoks Tomb (PD)(D&D adventure)(https://hol.abime.net/3292)

*Imbrium (Dizzy style)(https://www.lemonamiga.com/games/details.php?id=4340)
*Impact 95 (Breakout style)(https://hol.abime.net/2617)
***Jelly Othelly (PD)(http://aminet.net/package/game/think/JellyOthelly)

**Knights (PD)(https://hol.abime.net/4543)
*Master Mage (https://www.lemonamiga.com/games/details.php?id=4480)
***Metamorphosis (PD)(https://hol.abime.net/5372)
***Mindfighter (Adventure (Great Story))(https://hol.abime.net/2487)
*Psycheual (PD)(Unfinished?)(https://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=51437)

Thanks for this hitm4n, when I get some time I'll take a look through and add anything I consider decent.

These games are already in my collection though:

For "Clik Clak" I'm using the alternative version Gear Wars, but maybe I should swap around as people seem to know "Clik Clak" and not "Gear Works".

For "Metamorphosis", that's the pre-release name. It became Morph.

Cool, then I leave as is

I'm hoping "Gear Works" was the more popular, well know title.

It seems Gear Works was the release in the US and Clik Clak was the UK release.
Im guessing back in the day i just got hold of the US version first.

Yup, I know that "Clik Clak" is the European and "Gear Works" is the American version.

I usually always add the European version to my collection as most times it's better known.

"Clik Clak" came out in 1992 and "Gear Works" in 1993. I think that why I decided to use, in case there were any improvements / fixes.

Anyway, what do others say, did you know this game as "Clik Clak" or "Gear Works"?
