I just think it is way too old to revisit and actually play.

I see that it's available on GOG for $6. I plan to give it a try.

The War Engine runs fine on Windows 10.

Only squares.

Here is a fresh link to the Traveller (Snapshot) mod:

So much promise, so little execution ... [sigh]

<t> A couple of years ago I picked up a Panasonic Toughbook, 2001 era, for US$86. I wiped the hard drive and then installed Win XP SP 1. I use it exclusively for DOS (with DOSBox) and early Windows games. That version of Windows did not require an internet connection to install, so the Toughbook has...

Wings Over France. Good game, but quite different from Bloody April.

<t> Many years ago I did a mod of AH's Blitzkrieg for Empire II, a wargame at the easy end of the complexity scale. I also did Tactics II and posted them both at the Wargamer.

For me (running Win7x64) all of my problems disappeared when I started setting my screen resolution = 1024 x 768 BEFORE running the game. This applies to all 3 Hussar games. Of course, compatibility should be set to WinXP also.

Have you tried setting your display resolution to 1024 x 768? That works for me on Win7x64.

In my experience, the thing that really got NiI running under Win7x64 was to set the screen resolution = 1024 x 768. Do this on the desktop before you run the game. Hope this helps.

Sounds interesting - who designed/developed it?

Vengeance appears to be an updated version of Medieval 2 (which was an update of Medieval) by Jeff Lapkoff and Incredible Simulations. Good game.

Empire II had a Blenheim scenario.

I always hoped that Norm Koger would do "Age of Muskets" but, alas, it never happened.

Napoleon, 1813 (Empire Interactive). If you confined yourself to reading the manual, you would see a clever, sophisticated take on a Napoleonic campaign - it looked like a great system (still does). In fact, the game is unplayable due to bugs, even with all patches applied.
