It is the 23rd Century and
Maracus Luxor, ruler of Earth, has
created the deadliest game known

the convicted prisoners and also to
entertain the Earth's rulers. Four
prisoners are chosen to battle it
out on the grid. There are two teams
The red team and the blue team, each
having two cycle riders per team,
battling it out until death. Shift
gears from low to high or vice versa
to make turns or trap your enemy.
Race your light cycles through a
maze of debris or without any obsta-
cles at all. You make the choice,
for you're in control.

Editorial
Last issue I said that I would make the editorial short,
instead I went on for a whole page. This time I won't say a
thing and maybe I won't go on for so long.
Piracy, this is one subject that I have been hearing a
lot about in the past little while. I don't think piracy is
right, but what I think won't changed many peoples' opinions.
In my opinion I feel one reason why so much software is being
pirated is because the cost of the product. I've heard many
arguments by many programmers that say you have to charge
forty dollars a copy, or you'll never make any profit. That is
very untrue. I think the more that is charged for a program,
the more the program will be pirated, instead of being bought.
There will probably still be the odd pirate around, wanting a
pirated version, but I think all the smaller pirates will
probably buy the program, because it is not worth the
hassle. (That is if the price is not too high).
One company that has brought their prices down to a
reasonable price range is that of GENTRY. They are a division
of DATASOFT and have made all of their games priced for under
$20. This is quite reasonable when you think the disk,
packaging and duplication shouldn't cost more than $2 for each
disk. I also hear the argument that, what about all the
promotion money that goes into a product. I think if the
product is good, hardly any promotion money should have to be
put in to it. With so many pirates on the loose, much time has
to be spent on making copy protection, instead of spent on
making programs. So if you see or hear of anyone pirating
please tell them it is themselves that they are ripping off. I
feel some programs are worth the $40+ price range but many are
not and those are the ones that should think of lowering their
prices
Enough about piracy. This issue of ROM is, I feel, our
best yet. We have kept our promise of going full color as you
have probably noticed when looking at the cover. Our cover was
designed by our photographer Jason Cockroft. He used a piece
of carboard to poke holes in the shape of an ATARI symbol. A
light was then put behind it to light-up the pin-holes. The
symbol was then photographed using a Cokin filter called a
"Diffractor Galaxy".
In this issue we have a machine language program called,
'Space Bridge' by Bob Cockroft, that I'm sure you'll all
enjoy. Also included in this issue is an interview with 'Arti
Haroutunion' , author of Kidgrid and Juice. A new column
starting up this issue is called 'Making a Game' by Jack
Chung, author of Base Hunter from the last issue. We hope this
will help both the beginner and advanced become familiar with
the programming of a game. The 'War Zone' also has a new name.
It will be called, 'Strategy Zone' as it will deal with other
games other then war games. We hope that this issue will help
you with your programming and will keep you informed on the
new things that are coming out. Thanks again for all your
letters

Heracles(a.k.a. Hercules). unless played exceedingly well,
some player is going to snuff it
(that's part of the game folks)
and the readying of new heroes is
time consuming. What with the
gathering of gold to buy a new
sword and dagger (the originals
are invariably cheap) among other
things, the acquisition of new
players takes up time. Therefore,
the back up hero is a good idea,

who the best choices are. I may
hear arguments from the wings on
these choices, but here they are

not only fast, but also strong,
healthy, and dextrous. He already
has excellent armor (the River
Styx etc.) and armed with a poi-
soned sword and dagger, he is al-
most invincible(more about this
later). To further the argument,
along with Achilles, comes his
inseperable companion and cousin,
Patroclus, who is also an excel-
