• Old MS DOS game question

    Hey y'all,

    This is possibly one for the EU boys n girls, but really anyone who might know the answer... I'm trying to figure out what game I played back in like early 90's. I don't even remember much about it other than it has like a sort of cut scene that had what I can only describe as a sepia manila envelope with some speech written on the front, and a b&w picture of Winston Churchill in the top right corner, and on the audio it played his D-Day speech.

    I can only imagine it was some kind of flying game, but it wasn't Timequest or Aces Over Europe.


    If you remember this, and can recall the name, I'd love to know what it is, I've been trying to remember it for days now, and getting no-where fast lol.


    Cheers as always!

    Hmmm.... I seem to remember playing a game with what you described. Been a long time so I'm guessing maybe B-17 Flying Fortress. I played a few WWII flying games but for some reason I keep thinking that was the game.

    Nice, no it wasn't that one, but that looks like a great game. I definitely never saw it before today though.
    I'll keep on searching =)
