Lords of the rising Sun

i recently downloaded "Lotrs" from the cinemaware-page, cause i played this game very often during my ancient amiga-times. Unfortunately i was never able to Win with Yoritomo, so i`am still keen on playin`.
loading the adf`s and runnin Winuae, i soon had to learn, that there are slight differences between the amiga and adf-version.
First: I can`t remember that i had to defend myself from ninja -attacks in a doorway, (on orig. Amiga, there was just a small message, i think)
second: thats why, i can`t play Yoritomo (dies to early in game)
third: I can`t find a way to save the game, but i`m not sure anymore if this was possible on real amiga..
so, how can i save, and get rid of the ninja-attacks..

ok, there is talk about an *ipf-image, but i can`t find it in the net..
a few minutes ago i loaded "lords of the rising sun"-on my real amiga, with original disks..obviously, the Main screen(Preserve History, Continue the fight, Launch a rebellion, restore History , End the rebellion) is missing in the adf`s..
Does someone own a fully workin`adf?
otherwise i have to create an adf by my own, but thats very complicating..
i might send you the printed serialnumber on the disks, if someone has a running adf, but is doubtin´ due to copyrights..

have you tried all Tosec versions from www.Planetemu.net?

bad idea, yes, meanwhile i downloaded all of them, tested them, and
its the same bad version ...

Well, this problem is indeed very old, and rather an intentional copy protection campaign from the authors than a configuration or emulator issue.

The only way out might be to use the WHD version.
