Can't find SSI games that begin with W

Colt374 · 06 February 2006, 01:26

I'm hoping someone can help me out both finding and/or confirming the existence of the following Amiga SSI games... I know one exists for sure, (Wargame Const.Set - but I'll be blowed if I can find an .adf of it), but only found hints about the others.

War of the Lance - SSI
Wargame Construction Set - SSI
Western Front - SSI

All three begin with W, and I can't find any of them? Hmmm, it's almost like a conspiracy.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Heroes Of The Lance http://hol.abime.net/702 an SSI game. (so probably not "War... but "Heroes...")
the game: http://www.planetemu.net/?section=re...&rubrique=roms

Wargame Construction Set http://hol.abime.net/1666
Could only find the c64 version of this game for download.

Western Front: The Liberation Of Europe 1944-45 http://hol.abime.net/4438

Thanks IronClaw. Unfortunately it's definately not Heroes of the lance I'm looking for... War of the Lance was a strategy game, not an RPG like Heroes. It was released on C64, PC and supposedly Amiga too. I can find every version but the Amiga one.

As for Wargame Construction Set... yes, I can only find the C64 version on the 'net too, hence this request. I already have an original of the C64 version. Thanks anyway.

Western Front : confirmed unreleased. Thanks.

Oh you Legend! Thank you!

Hmmm, SSG made it? I always thought it was SSI... shows how long its been since I've touched my C64 version.

My sincerest thank you's.

Colt.

P.s. to Sarek2k... Yep, got Warlords some time ago. It's been a favourite of my for a long time. Got the whole series on PC... even got Warlords Battlecry for some dumb reason.

War of the Lance wasn't released on the Amiga.

@Colt374 Adderly was correcting me in saying that Warlords was made by SSG and not SSI as i had put! Been a few years since i have seen the original box

Also Warlords was Great till it went RTS rather than Turn based (Sold out if u ask me!)

dlfrsilver · 06 February 2006, 18:01

I have bought this game mint 10 minutes ago ^^

Hmmm, I've seen so many sites around saying it was, (try doing a google search for "War of the Lance Amiga" and you'll see what I mean). Another pointless search, I guess. Thanks mate.

Err.. how the ?!*? did I miss that he was talking about Warlords? Thanks for correcting me.

ANd yes, it seems we are seeing everything going RTS these days. Makes me weep....

I agree that "War of the Lance" was never made for Amiga. I have never seen it and I have had an Amiga since 1985.

Total Chaos is still turn based and has hundreds more devious monsters and weapons than Warlords. And Total Chaos has 4,000,000,000+ maps instead of just 1 like Warlords.

I collect in special SSI games (got 500, different platforms, different countries)

I'm 100% sure WAR OF THE LANCE has never been released for amiga - nor advertised in any SSI catalogues as well.

Thank you Cebulba. Your a treasure-trove of info!
