And it does what when it ends ? How can you be sure it doesn't loop back ?

In my captive sources there's not even a message saying that the game ended !

I can't believe someone is able to complete more then 75% of the worlds in Powermonger.

Most definitely, that is one major feat

As a teenager I remember my father's friend being completely addicted / deeply into this game and had been playing for months and months on end... He was only about 60% - 75% through and was stuck.

I have a hard challenge for Cody. Matter-of-fact, I deem the game is impossible to beat normally due to bugs.

The game is Fighter Bomber Advanced Mission Disk. After trying to finish this game for weeks, I gave up at Chicken Run (Mission 7). I then skipped the rest of the missions except for the last one, Tumbleweed (Mission 16).

To reach as far as I did, I had to use various combinations of different Fighter Bomber d1 disks, Adv. Mission disks, and exploit the bugs found in the various versions.

Since I have completed the final adv. mission, this means I have the final screenshot already. Actually, I have all the screenshots of the original game and the 8 advanced missions that I succeeded in. Thus, my pledge is that for every missing advanced mission you can beat, I'll upload 3 missions worth of screenshots to help HOL out. If you do the math, there are 8 unfinished adv. missions, 24 completed missions (16 regular + 8 advanced), and 32 missions in total. If you are able to beat all the missing adv. missions, I'm willing to offer screenshots of games that HOL do not have already.

The game normally lets the user play a set of 4 missions at a time, starting at the easiest 4, I suggest you enter a cheat like "Buckaroo" for the username so all the missions will become accessible. The following thread explains the difference in cheats between version, which might be of use.
http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?p=394448#post394448

FYI, the ADF images that I used to complete the following adv. missions are:

Image - all missions, except Kite, Enforcer, Gatling Gun, and Tumbleweed.
Angels - only Kite, Enforcer, Gatling Gun, and Tumbleweed (each bridge is considered a mission target; useful as I could not find any remaining targets [phantom target bug?]).

In summary, I would like to see the Mission Report screenshots (displayed when the mission is completed after landing). In return, I'll contribute 3 missions' worth of screenshot for each adv. mission that I wasn't able to complete. Hopefully, Cody or someone else would take the challenge. It's the only game that I became too frustrated to complete in my collection so far.

How about Legends of Valour? I'm not sure if this game is completable but I'd sure like to see it attempted. I've never really got far on it myself. Mainly just wandering around, getting beaten up and getting arrrested for vagrancy.

LOL!

Its so true - apart from the getting beaten up bit (I hand out the beatings when anyone disses SWOS).

Oh I've just thought of another game. This ones a real toughy that I've not played much. Probably due to the fact that its actually a bit crap. The game is Jaws and there are currently no screenshots on HOL for this game. Would be interesting to see what the ending is and you could gather some screenshots for HOL in the process.
