Hi there!
Found this little pearl around in an Abandonware site.

Unluckily, given the complexity of this old timer a manual is still needed. Does anyone have a PDF of it?

I honestly believe that since the original makers are not around anymore there shouldn´t be any problem on the legal side.

If I´m wrong please delete this thread smile


Bunch of love.

I still have the original Microprose Gunship 2000 and also the Islands and Ice expansion pack both on floppy disks and packed in the old carton boxes with hefty manuals...

The addon contains Antarctica and Philippines scenarios.

GS2000..still one of the best, or maybe better to say the MOST FUN Helo Sims EVER. Variety, great mission editor, ability to command multiple team-mates, watch them develop with medals and promotions and my favorite thing: The ability to do SAR of downed pilots with the Blackhawk.

Can't QUITE get it slowed down enough to play on DOSBOX the way I remember it on my old 80286. Maybe I should just cherish the memories and stop trying.

One...major classic...retro...sim. Still worth a visit. Only regret is that it didn't have co-op!
