1.01 Patch available

SPI, think I may have had a couple of their games myself back in the early 70's. Were they in a sort of plastic tray with counters, map etc. Cant remember exact names but think one may have had "Autumn Leaves" in title (think it was WW1). The second im sure was called "Iron Cross" (WW1 Aircraft) Red fronted box with Black cross on it, remember them fondly anyway whatever there names were

Also had many Avalon Hill from the late 70's - 80's, plus others such as Ambush, Battle Hymn, B17 Queen of the Skies etc. Still have a few of the box games in cupboard, maybe not Avalon Hill though, not looked at them for years. Pattons Best, Tokyo Express, Blackbeard and a couple of others, must dig them out.

took my spectrum collection to a shop many many years ago, and was offered peanuts so kept the lot, so glad i didn't sell these or nay of the older games i collected and played, cross if iron boardgame still comes out every now and then, same as squad leader, classics never die and don't let the cardboard fade away[;)]

Spotted a few bugs in the 1.01 version:

1) When the game is saved and reloaded, all the minefields that have been cleared, return. At least you can see them, but it's kind of a pain to clear them again.

2) When you reload a saved game, it seems like the game counts up all the captured objectives and gives you the bonus funds for conquering ALL of them, as if you just did that in one turn. That's a huge advantage, and really should be fixed.
