You're mistaken on the EGA info. In any case, the way this game is coded, it doesn't like working on modern/NT PC's.

Suggest you use DosBox.

[Nicht Sehr Gut]: The game gives me a gpf when run from a dos windows inside XP. Under DosBox it loads but the screen appears half-cut. Under real dos, the bottom line appears cut too.

The version I have (very primitive) has an CGAFIGHT.EXE and EGAFIGHT.EXE files. I downloaded another version from the internet and it has VGASHOOT.EXE , allowing now proper function under VGA cards.

Ok, don't have that version. The programmers were trying to do some of the "neato" video tricks that were being done on the Amiga and may have broken a few rules in the process. Even when run on DosBox, the "transition effects" (lost a ship/starting with new ship, etc...) don't work properly but the game appears to run fine.

Should look like DosBox image posted below.

I'll stick with the Amiga version myself. 16 Colors just isn't enough...
