gear Original MicroProse DOS games!

I have all the original MicroProse DOS games running under Defend-Reloaded!
I must say my Favorite is B-17 Flying Fortress!

This post prompted me to check if GoG.com have released more Microprose games and to my surprise I noticed European Air War is available through them!

Default Gunship 2000

I recently installed Gunship 2000 DOS from the floppies. I recall playing it a lot decades ago. It’s a little boring now. The manual is interesting.

Most of the time, I seem to be flying to the waypoints.

Here is the ranking list of old Microprose DOS games that I agree with a very small correction of placing
1. Xcom Enemy Defence in the 1st place instead of Crusade in Europe (1985)
and adding
2. Sid Meier’s Railroad Tycoon, 3. Master of Orion and 4. Grand Prix series instead of repeating/updated/improved genres of the same title like Strike Eagle 2 and then 3.

Any Microprose game was a great gaming experience
