Vametier the Medic is already carrying as much as they can reasonably manage: a strength of five, minus two, gives three, which is the number of items they are already carrying. In this gathering mission, carrying the items should be left to Vemetier's colleagues if the player wants Vametier to have the energy to perform their medical duties.
If a #StarCadre Combat Class unit carries more items than they can manage, they'll start to slow down. Each unit can carry a number of items equal to their strength minus 2, before encumbrance takes effect. Get the game from cyningstan.itch.io/star-cadre-c... #ibmpc #msdos #cga

Confieso que tengo un sesgo hacia el #msx y solo muestro fotos de ese sistema, pero también había otros de la época, como #spectrum, #amstradcpc, #NES, máquinas de arcade, PCs con tarjetas #CGA y más... sin olvidar la exposición permanente del Museo de Informática Histórica #MIH en #Unizar
Lanera the Warrior has found a Shield in the dungeon. She can't yet use it, as it requires Dodging:2 skill and Lanera doesn't have Dodging skill at all. But the shield can be put aside for a while, maybe stored in the safe deposit box in the merchant shop, and picked up again when needed. The shield is shown enlarged in the inset.
The shield is a round wooden buckler with an iron rim, the shield provides protection from enemy blows when equipped in the offhand. Get The #ChambersBeneath from cyningstan.itch.io/the-chambers... #roguelike #ibmpc #msdos #cga
The droids have just begun to solve the puzzle of Double Trouble level 7. Thinker is about to rush to pick up the phaser, ready to fire at the guards in the next chamber before the pick-up and shoot actions disappear from the library. Soldier has the same errand; it has the shoot action in its ROM but must still rush to pick up the data card in time.
Level 7 of Double Trouble is split into a number of chambers. Two droids must each figure out their own way of crossing a chamber full of patrolling guards. A phaser is provided for the purpose of shooting them. #TeamDroid cyningstan.itch.io/team-droid #ibmpc #msdos #cga
Sandbanks on the coast of an island.
Sandbanks clog up rivers and coastal areas around the islands. Air Fighters and Hoverbugs can travel over Sandbanks, but of the sea units, only Mining Boats can navigate these areas, and even those at a careful pace. cyningstan.itch.io/waterworld. #ibmpc #msdos #cga #BarrenPlanet #Waterworld

The player's units make opportunity attacks during the computer's first turn. One of the computer's units, Oxybre, is unfortunate enough to enter the vestibule immediately after the player's units take up a defensive position. After Tapheran the auxiliary and Usay the scout fire at Oxybre, the medic Amiren shows that marksmanship isn't their strong point.
Opportunity Attacks in #StarCadre Combat Class allow units to attack enemies during the enemy's turn. If a unit has enough action points when an enemy appears within attack range, the unit will attack. Get the game from cyningstan.itch.io/star-cadre-c... #ibmpc #msdos #cga
Brittina the Mage is about to read a scroll before descending into her first dungeon. In this particular run the M scroll is the Magic Dart spell, but these letter assignments are random. So a different set of letters will represent each spell from one run to the next. The scroll is enlarged in the inset.
Upon scrolls magic spells are written. The scroll will need to be read or identified to tell what spell it contains. Casting the spell is dependent on skill in the appropriate branch of magic. Get The #ChambersBeneath from cyningstan.itch.io/the-chambers... #roguelike #ibmpc #msdos #cga

In level 6 of Double Trouble, Soldier inside the central chamber has already shot one forcefield generator, allowing Carrier on the outside to progress towards the phaser. Carrier will then use that phaser to shoot the generator powering the forcefield that divides the central chamber in two.
The sixth level of Double Trouble for #TeamDroid resembles the first, in that the complex is divided into inner and outer sections. But in this case, two robots have to disable each other's forcefields. Get the game and the level pack from cyningstan.itch.io/team-droid #ibmpc #msdos #cga
The cursor highlights some land on the map.
Open Ground forms most of the larger islands, and is where Ports are built. Ports are generally next to Deep Water so the port can build the largest ships. Hoverbugs and Air Fighters can move over this terrain. cyningstan.itch.io/waterworld. #ibmpc #msdos #cga #BarrenPlanet #Waterworld
