'95 I meant, yes - actually have the original box up on the shelf here,
had
to go and check!!
Reason I'm finding it tough is that defenses are weak.
Technique I always liked best was to use sandbags to funnel the opposition
into my missile towers and chain guns - can't do that here. And keep
getting
very confused about left / right click, and missing the Ctrl F5 etc
location
bookmarks.
Still, Dune 2 was even worse... left click to select, left click to choose
a
goto or attack command, then left click to select target. Unplayable,
right? - yet somehow we managed and enjoyed it.
