6 - which doesn't have true 3D graphics

10-Easy to learn, but hard to master is a turn-off for me. This statement is over used in hyping a game!

I don't know any 1mb (mb = millibit?) disks, floppy or otherwise. Otherwise game was originally made with/for BBC Micro with 64 KB of RAM, or less. And the entire game had to fit on that RAM! For your information, games are still being made with such restraints/restrictions. Not every new game is in gigabyte category (I bet most aren't). Review of one wargame made for the earliest PCs from couple years ago. Game in question is a sequel for 2 other games that were made for Commodore 64 & Vic-20.

1.The U.I. is too complicated (I don't want to invest the time)

2.This game has been done too much (I want something else)

3. The O.O.B. is terrible (I can't exploit it to my liking)

Idea (thought behind the idea)
