Until then, here it is. I played a game program called "Trials of Battle." This game was written by Shadowsoft for IBM's OS/2 operating system (version 4 called Warp) and was distributed by Stardock (www.stardock.com). Neither company sells or supports this program at all and I don't think source code is even available for it anymore. In fact no one supports it and I can't find the author. As a FreeBSD user, I'm searching for a programmer or developer who would be willing to code a clone of this outstanding game? I'm willing to provide any and all (non-programming) support necessary to this project including: screen shots, layouts and/or drawings, program functionality flowcharts, user options, difficulty levels, etc. FreeBSD does not currently have any native games written for it of this caliber. I desperately want to see this game running natively on FreeBSD systems. Please respond to both email addresses above. Thank you. Here's a brief description of the TOB game: Stardock Systems, a leading OS/2 software vendor, announced Trials of Battle today. Trials of Battle, a fast paced first person action game that has been described as a combination of Quake and Mech Warrior, is in fact the first 3D action game designed specifically for OS/2. Trials of Battle uses all of OS/2's latest multimedia advances. Trials of Battle has excellent graphics, sound, and a full digital musical sound track. "I think this game will replace Galactic Civilizations as OS/2's #1 game." said Brad Wardell, Designer of Galactic Civilizations. "It's a terrific game that people can sit down and get into right away but has enough elements to keep people playing for a long time." Sincerely, Mark A.
