Real-time Napoleonic point and click wargame. Includes a replay option. This game is only 4k! First modem game by a major publisher. Danielle Bunten's last C64, first PC game, and last design for EA. Working title was to be "War" but became "Sport of War". Dani offers the PC version for free download on her personal site.
