TRIVIA:: Originally scheduled for release in mid-1988, the Amiga version of GUNSHIP didn't materialise until mid-1989. Reportedly, the delay was predominantly the result of the programmer's source disk becoming infected with a virus [Source: Amiga User Int'l (Sept 88, p44), courtesy of the Amiga Magazine Rack].

Conversion Notes

Based on 1986 MicroProse C64/128 release. PC versions: CGA, EGA, Tandy/PCjr N.B. Despite loading instructions for the Apple II and Atari XL/XE appearing in the manual, the game was never released for these platforms.
