![]() I played this game almost as much as Civ when it came out but over time lost the original game. Bought the expansion pack years later but had the 'Illegal Copy' problem with both CDs and couldn't get any useful support. The Abandonia download does at least let me play the original campaign - I haven't tried loading the expansion CD into dosBox yet but I'll let you know if I have any success.
I think I still have the original manuals but I get the impression that making them available may be legally dubious. I imagine that the expansion CD isn't available here because it isn't yet 'abandoned' but I would happily upload a copy if and when it is. I'd need to confirm this but my recall is that you could designate some units for campaign play. It was one of the options when you had a unit in a repair shop? Once you get to know the game this is probably too much of an advantage, experienced units are much more effective than fresh ones. A level 1 buggy may not do any bombard damage to a tecnotrak but it becomes much more useful once it gets 'wings' (by picking on demons to get early experience). I didn't enjoy Battleisle 2220 nearly as much, strangely, though the gameplay was very similar. Sound and graphics were certainly improved and the storyline and some of the dubbed dialogue was almost as strange as the text in BattleIsle 2! |

![]() Superb game! I love it and I play it year after year, also I play BI3, but it's not so balanced and easier.
BI2 addon is very hard game, much, much harder than BI2 itself. Also, I was at nightmare with this damn message "cracked version". Then I found a solution - burn a CD (or even a virtual image) with label BATTLEISLE2 - capital letters. My original CD - sent from the developer was Battle Isle 2 and it won't work... Shame! |

![]() I have uploaded the BI2 manual in pdf (not a scanned one, but an original pdf) to the site below, but it is still pending for being listed:
http://www.gamemanuals.net/ for some other tips see my post and some more in german on this forum: http://www.battle-planet.de/pbp/pbp.php I finally bought BI3 too, but it is a dissapointment really. It is windows based so easier to run. But the user interface is clumsy, the controls not nearly as easy as in BI2. the new units are overkill. They have been messing with the pallette so your units are colored ugly. BI2 is a masterpiece, with BI3 they managed to almost ruin it... Also available is a opensource game in the same style: "advanced strategic command" yet it did not strike me as being very polished, and I began missing my BI2 units. I have been looking for the BI2 scenery CD: Titan's legacy for some time too. finally managed to get me a used copy! it is a very nice addon really, patching the game slighly to run easier and faster. It adds multiplayer, 6 new units, a new campaign. Though despite having the new campaign I somehow felt like starting with the original campaign again. These first missions (up around 6) are nice, not too difficult and fit in a few hours. I have to watch it though because these later missions are just as addictive but actually a bit too time consuming. |

![]() Oh another thing, the CD versions of the game are very tricky to get running since the
copy protection of the game checks if the cd-rom driver MSCDEX is loaded. then it checks for CD with the proper name. I will upload a guide on this issue to the download section of my homepage soon. Also I have been working on a unit overview with images and specs which will be added once it is finished. http://home.quicknet.nl/qn/prive/lm.broers/ |

![]() Hi,
I´ve a question. I´m in a mission, which seems to be much too hard, I can´t actually remember the scenario-password(must be the 8th or 9th, think it´s the mission after capturing the airport, in the level before). I´m starting with some untis and the enemy has more than the double fire power at land, at air and at sea.The yellow is my alllied, the red has the green and the grey as partners. Usually after 5-6rounds my lines are broken... I see a factory, but can´t reach it, too many red units there. Does someone know which level i mean, and more important has someone a hint how to manage that level? |
