I didn't buy many computer games in the early '80s. Now that I think about it, I don't think my family had a computer until about 1983. And for a long time we only had one floppy disk for each of us because they were so expensive. Our entire software collection probably consisted of AppleWriter, MasterType (my parents' idea), and Choplifter for a year or so. But I digress.... Anyway, I didn't even know Avalon Hill made computer games until I found a copy of Andromeda Conquest at a closeout store. I think it was probably about $10, which was very cheap for software back then. Somewhere (hopefully at my parent's house) I still have it and the box. >Lee just pointed out an AH game I have to put on my want list...Incunabula. >Anybody have one for trade or sale? BTW, Hugh, it occurs to me that it's possible that game only came out for DOS compuers. I notice very little of your AH collection is DOS. >Epyx is another company I heavily collect >(http://www.classicgaming.com/gotcha/epyx.htm). Again, I feel one of the >most successful (yet underappreciated) publishers of the 80s. I don't know about most successful, but certainly one of the more successful publishers. It's a shame they're gone. -- Lee K.
