I wrote this little DOS script that would 'reincarnate' my pilots if they died.  
  Shortly after TFH came SWOTL..;)

That was my first game on my first IBM style comp. I switched from an apple 2c to a turbo 8088. Whatever that chip was... can't think of it now.
That game was a real kick! :)

I played it on a PC and amiga :>
It was so cool, especially at the age I was playing it..

Although today the graphics would probably leave me wondering what the drawn graphics are representing :D

First computer game I ever bought....loved it.

Kept flying one of my pilots over and over in the same easy mission until he had a ton of experience points,then renamed him a dozen times so I had a squadron of Aces.

German's never even made the coast..heh heh.
