  Very impressive Scramble clone for 1983. Smooth scrolling with lots of graphical details. Colours are beautiful. Even a map is included. Best of all, the difficulty is fair and encourages you to venture on. Recommended!

  I remember playing this a lot as a kid from the five game compilation that came with the 65XE. It's a good game bit the ropey collision detection seems to add an extra difficulty, as sometimes you score a direct hit on a missile or fuel dump and it doesn't register!

  Were the advertised extra landscapes ever released or archived?

  I remember this as being more playable than the original Airstrike.
