Martech games

I recently learned of the existence of the games Conflict and Galaxy Conflict for the Dragon, among other computers.

It seems to be quite rare, but It would be nice to be able to preserve them.

I'm including the ad from TakodanTweets on Twitter (look for other nice ad scans), and pictures of the game boxes found on Reddit.

If anyone knows about them or has them, please get in touch!

Cheers,
Rob

In all my years of preserving games for the Dragon - I was never able to prove these ever existed for the Dragon outside of the advert. They have not shown up in any of the reviews I have seen to date or in any "news" etc. in the magazines of the day. Would be nice if they were out there - but like a few others who advertised a Dragon 32 version but never made or released the port as the Dragon was not the huge commercial success they thought it might be.

i have the Commodore 64 versions of these.

They are written in BASIC, so maybe you can convert them to Dragon.

Here are TEXT versions of the C64 listings for you to look at.
