A while back demoniac uploaded a manual for Barbarian II by Psygnosis, but there are multiple pages missing. Yesterday I saw this on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/165914744207
Not exactly cheap, but not that expensive either. Maybe somebody from the US could get it and scan the manual? |

Thanks!
The game seems to be made by Norwegians. Last edited by fryguy; 03 May 2023 at 22:40. |

Is there guidelines for scanning manuals and disks somewhere?
Update: Uploaded Spellbound! disk scans to the zone. Let me know if I need to rescan with a different DPI and format. Last edited by Abaddon; 03 May 2023 at 23:46. |

There isn't yet, but I'll ask Cody to add it to the contribution FAQ. Basically it should be at least 300 DPI and unmodified (no filters, no upscaling). File format also doesn't really matter.

I've moved PascalDe73's posts to a new thread: http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=114434 (to keep it a bit more tidy)

This site has a complete Damocles manual scan (current one on HoL is just the first page)
http://mercenarysite.free.fr/m2box.htm There are also some other scans (boxes, etc) which might or might not be better than what we have on HoL already. |

I have found out, that there are a lot of Compilations CDs from Epic Marketing are missinng in HOL.
I can scan all these Covers and CDs, including Adventurers Lair if it wanted. Also I can do some Box Scans from 10 out of 10 series? |

Brat copy with the English manual: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/186206962864
I would get it if the shipping wouldn't cost twice as much as the game... |
