This game is probably very hard to get wo work on a modern computer or so the creators say at their homepage, but I thought someone of you might have got it started with dosbox or other solutions?

The game is a newer version of the classic north vs south, although ata is old also.

It seems kind a cool anyway, and north vs south was fun as I remember. :)

Right... I have had trouble starting this game for some months... five minutes after above post I had it working in dosbox, but with quite a strain on the cpu it seems - but it worked - just had to give it 65k memory...

Are there any other solutions than dosbox? Cause it's very slow and demanding in dosbox. cycles above 15000 and 5 frameskips and it's barely playable.

There is always VPC or VMware for creating a virtual dos-W95-W98-WNT-Linux pc in XP.
