And this is why I play Magic-Users. "Poor Fighter is unarmed, he is little baby now. Oh no you're going to disarm me of my walking stick, too? OK I can still create a nuclear holocaust by speaking 3 words. Klaatu Barata… don't test me!"

(I went to Scout camps, where I nearly lost my thumb to a broken knife, nearly killed another kid in a counting coup game that went bad, played a bunch of D&D and Palladium Fantasy… and a couple computer camps. Nerds!)

Almost worst possible character (tried for Navy, was sent to Merchant Marines), but the analysis pages are awesome.
Then the program crashed on me, so I need to retry this in a real emulator.
Fuck your trademark laws, GDW and suck-up Dragon!

I feel like I'm having a stroke reading the title of this game.
Atari 8-bits had a neat trick, they used only left track of the cassette for program, you could put mono audio on the right track, and play it along the program load, or keep programmatically playing & pausing it.
I only knew of a couple educational tapes that used it, amazing to see a game I never heard of (or had a stroke and forgot it then, too)

No matter how bad things are now, these will seem like The Good Old Days to the kids of the future.

Try democracy, not tyranny!
Be the STFU you wish to see in the world.
Block all Nazis, Republicans (same thing), blockchain, NFT grifts.
Never trust a computer you can't reach with a sledgehammer.
