Anyone a fan of Star Trek?

Anybody remember Battle Chess?
You probably would. I bet you'd use rock all the time, and you see, I've got this natural tendency to always pick scissors. I was born to lose.
I'm not fat ... I'm festively plump.
Battle Chess was the shizzle!

Pirates, vampires, zombies, ninjas, ghouls, aliens, goblins, monsters, robots, sorcerers, undead, werewolves, demons, mutated dinosaur-cyborgs and those pesky phone salesmen! The shotgun is a one-size-fits-all solution!
Yep... battle chess on one floppy disk... indeed a sign of the times.

Yep, on my 286 with fantastic EGA color monitor. My favorite was the knight, jumping up and down, (Monty Python) as parts of him were sliced off. I don't believe there was full sound, just blips.

Yes, Fred that game was jawsome!!!!

Count me in! I remember Battle Chess. Ah, memories, memories. . .
Never too late for coffee, never too early for beer.
The first time I tried to play it was off the disk, so each move took forever. I didn't make that mistake a second time.

I used to have 2 Tandy's in my basement. Remember those? The proprietary Radioshack machines...
My first computer was a Tandy...a real Dandy...it came in very Handy...but it was too Mandy-Pandy...so I threw it in the Compactor-crandy. Sheesh! That really stunk! :roll:
