Air Fighters are another unit brought over from Dapra. They can fly over anything except volcanoes, whose eruptions are too dangerous for airborne traffic to venture near. Air Fighters have a longer attack range than Hoverbugs or Ports. #barrenplanet#ibmpc#msdos#cga
Destroyers are the smallest sea combat units. They have little firepower and a short range, but are lightly armoured. They can navigate both deep and shallow water, although they can't navigate too close to the sandbanks. #barrenplanet#ibmpc#msdos#cga
Battleships are the largest ships afloat. They have more power and a longer range than cruisers, and are the best units to have in a sea battle. They are also good for offshore bombardment. #barrenplanet#ibmpc#msdos#cga
Gun Platforms are static land-based units, useful for defending ports. They're static units, but they have a longer firing range than any other unit in the game, so can keep enemy ships away from your Ports. #barrenplanet#ibmpc#msdos#cga
As you'd expect for a campaign called "Waterworld", most of the maps are made up of ocean. But there are small areas of land that poke up above the ocean surface, and there is a variety of terrain there. #barrenplanet#ibmpc#msdos#cga
The Necromancer is the final enemy in Ossuary. He is the cause of all the chaos you've battled through. If you kill him, then you will keep your gold... and your life! If you want to beat him, check out Ossuary on its web page: http://dos.cyningstan.org.uk/downloads/6/ossuary#ossuary#ibmpc#msdos#cga
If you ever saw a pixel-perfect screenshot from a virtual machine running MS-DOS in the default VGA text mode, you probably noticed that it looks slightly off.
The characters are too wide, and the whole image seems stretched.
But did you know that what you’re seeing is a perfect representation of the actual image, while your monitor from 1995 was deceiving you? Let’s have a closer look.
Hello everyone! Your favorite fedibirdy is back over here on thesocial.zone!
My main area of interest is gaming- particularly #retrogaming. I adore the #msdos era up through the early 00s. Games like DooM, Duke3D, Quake, EverQuest, and Starsiege Tribes.
#Retrocomputing and #retrotech bring me so much joy. As I've aged I find myself stereotypically looking back to my childhood and missing it immensely. I was quite the nerd falling in love with computers the moment I could connect to local BBS on my mom's work PC. I put that i386 9600baud Hayes machine through its paces.
#Horror is another love of mine. Every week I watch at least one horror film, and I never grow tired of them. It's the only film genre I continuously am excited for.
And, of course, #birds! These precious animals mean the world to me. They bring me peace and happiness just simply watching them from my living room window. Ever since a pair of sparrows nested in my garage many years ago have I been enamored with them.
