[Audyssey] anacreon?
Hi, I tok a look at the anacreon game. Are there any games like this but based on lord of the rings type fantasy with wizards and magic and spells and such stuff like a dungeons and dragons type game?

Tired of Microsoft Windows and paying thousands for screen-readers? try out NVDA, get a mac--, nvda--for Windows, or try out and switch to grml, Ubuntu, Vinux, or knoppix-adriane Linux desktops. Knoppix ubuntu and vinux-cli-max are the most accessible for beginners. also try vinux-gui and encourage those at www.cherrypal.com to use windows-xp and nvda knoppix-adriane Vinux-cli-max or grml so all blind people can have an accessible computer. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

[Audyssey] Anacreon Tips and a problem
Howdy, I'm trying to get back into Anacreon reconstruction again--I played the DOS version way back when, and still have it on my computer here. Can even play it, with a little effort--(Thank you, Window-eyes!) However, with the new Windows version, I've noticed a very strange bug on my laptop, which doesn't seem to manifest on the PC at all. What happens is that the report screen, which is supposed to pop up at the beginning of every turn, simply doesn't. It's as if it wasn't there at all, which it really doesn't seem to be. The News window and the like don't come up either. This tends to make the game extremely difficult to play well on my laptop, whereas on my PC I can manage it decently. The funny thing is, that the DOS version plays well on my laptop but not my PC... So...I've tried emailing George Moramasato about this, and gotten no response. I was wondering if anyone either has: A) A solution for this problem, (somehow). Or perhaps, B) Tips for playing without the map in the DOS version? Thanks much in advance, folks. Yours, Zack. ___ Gamers mailing list ..

Re: [Audyssey] Anacreon play-by-Email game forming, seeking players.
I have been playing with the Windows version of the anacreon game for like 3 weeks now. I seem to have 2 problems..maybe you can advise me on them? When I go to the Fleet information screen..Jawws starts reading and I can't seem to stop it. I have to hit the Jaws cursor key and the PC cursor key over and over to interrupt the talking. I followed one user's advice and made a change to jaws relating to the highlight color. Did you also make this change? Next..I have tried to save a game and then go find the .SAV file that you mention.. I can't seem to find this. Must I pick a 2 or more player game to have this .SAV file? And finally...is there any info on what created the .SCN scenario files? Were they just typed into a text editor or is there a universe creator program I don't have yet? thanks Robert ___ Gamers mailing list ..

[Audyssey] Anacreon play-by-Email game forming, seeking players.
As posted last week, I'm looking for players of Anacreon to join us in a play-by-email game. If you want to try the game out, go to http://www.neurohack.com/ and find the Anacreon link. Shane Davidson has also posted a copy of a tutorial I wrote for using Anacreon with a screen reader. We have since discovered that with a little tweaking of the custom highlight colors, one can have greatly improved access to the info presented on screen. I am looking for up to six other players as I already have one who has declared his interest. Once I know how many players we have, we'll select a scenario that seems appropriate and the fun will begin. As a teaser, here is a narrative of the last few years of a game I'm playing solo in a scenario I created, in which the massive but fragile Galactic Empire faces three upstart empires (player empires). His Imperial Majesty, Claudius VII awoke from his year long sleep and stretched in the hybernaculum. His devoted assistants helped him from the coffin-shaped cryo-pod and gave him water and nutritional supplements. Gradually his head cleared and he saw the somber expression on the faces of his military commanders. All right, normally we'd wait until I was a bit stronger, but there's something wrong and I'd best know it. Your Majesty, began Admiral Okata in a stern tone. The Corelian Empire has been suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and ground forces from the Empire of the Chosen. They struck in a well-coordinated assault that destroyed nearly all our merchant shipping in the Delta Aquarii V and Zeta Omicron 6 systems, as well as successfully invading those worlds. Our naval forces in system were insufficient to save the situation, and, while ship production on Zeta Omicron 6 was gearing up, we had little in reserve, once the fleets we dispatched to counter the thrust were in turn defeated. We lost both worlds, sire. I take full responsibility. No Admiral, the sovereign replied wearily. You warned me that the religious fanatics were arming for war, but I had hoped the idea of the Galactic Empire striking out of the center would keep them quiescent while we built up our defenses. I am responsible. I take it our new star ships were less successful than anticipated? They performed brilliantly, nearly destroying the entire penetrator force from Eden, but there weren't enough of them. Damn!, Claudius sighed. There goes a third of our military naval production and 80% of our raw materials production. We can take the worlds back, interjected General Martelle, the commandant of Royal Marines. My sources on planet say that we bled them white and they can't hold the worlds. Is there any news from Atlantis or any word of the Galactic Empire. The Foreign Minister spoke up. We have received condolences from Lady Katrina of Atlantis, but she has stated that she has Imperial problems, having had to muster a major naval force to beat back an incursion from the center to destroy her trillum production. Our intelligence service suggests that the Galactic Empire is busy with suppressing rebellions. Cleon II has his hands full. We did clear the Imperial mine field that stands between us and Eden, so we have an open avenue for our jump-capable craft to mount a counterattack against the Chosen,: the admiral went on. However, the last scout mission dispatched to Eden showed that the Grand Hierarch has enough planetary defenses to hold off anything I could assemble quickly. Our raw materials situation is already critical; Corelia, Scheat 6, Eta Rigil, all are short of either metals or chemicals. All right, assemble a task force to retake the two lost worlds quickly, before they can reinforce. We need Delta Aquarii badly. And arm our merchant convoys in future. My liege, it will be done. . . . The Grand Hierarch awoke to the news of the stunning double victory. Immediately he prayed in thanksgiving and prepared for his own staff meeting. The biggest problem we have, your Holiness, said Admiral Lianades, is that we are overextended. In choosing to attack both worlds simultaneously, we had to dangerously divide our fleet. I'm not sure we can hold either world against a concerted counterattack. Also, our commander on the scene at Zeta Omicron 6 reported encountering a large new class of vessel that he'd never fought before. They played havoc among our medium forces until the Faithful rallied and martyred themselves in suicide attacks against them. If the Corelian dogs have developed this craft in quantity, they could represent a major advantage for them. My son, you know full well that God orders all things in his own time. He has given us this victory, even after the disastrous invasion attempt ten years ago. He will provide. But Your Holiness,. . . Hush. Now, how goes the relief mission? Your Holiness. . .

Re: [Audyssey] anacreon interface with jfw?
Dave, I'm catching up on email after a two-week vacation. To select a scenario, you will need to use your JAwS cursor to scout out the scenarios, counting down lines to the scenario you choose. Then in your pc cursor, hit down-arrow that number of times to select the scenario. You will need the say-all-text selected to play this game properly. You will get the introductory text for the scenario. Hit enter until you get a prompt for the number of players. As I've only ever played 1-player scenarios with this version, I'm not sure, but I think you hit your down arrow key to the number of players you want, then it cycles through each empire's first turn, allowing you to name the empire, put in a password etc. HTH Chris Bartlett At 05:08 PM 8/1/2006, you wrote: Hello, I've downloaded Anacreon v2.1d windows version and am trying to give it a go, the quickstart guide intrigued me as did the site itself, easily navigatable without any adds or javascript.

Choose attack from the Ministry of War Menu. 2. You will be confronted with the group configuration screen. The grid is a triangle with one group on the right, centered on three groups in the next column, centered by 5 groups in the left-most column. You begin on the group at the right point of the triangle. Use your arrow keys to move from group to group, with Say All (or the WE or HAL equivalent) on. While on a group, you may hit the S key for split or the J key to join it up with other groups of the same kind of ship. 3. After you have your groups configured the way you want, hit enter. Now you are on the battle screen. Again, your groups are set up in the triangle and you highlight them with the arrow keys. Hit the letter T to cycle through the available targets at a given orbital level. You will have to use your Jaws or other exploring cursor to find out what the opposition is, and to click the engage or retreat buttons. (JFW doesn't report them as standard buttons, but you left-click on them anyway. You may also hit the letter A to tell a highlighted group to advance, or R to tell it to retreat or S to tell it to stand by. Remember that you must move your transports or jump transports with infantry forward to land the infantry on the surface of the planet. Having done this, the transport group disappears and becomes infantry. Let me know if you have any other questions. Christopher Bartlett ___ Gamers mailing list ..

Re: [Audyssey] ANACREON?
I'm using the 2.1 Windows version. Chris Bartlett At 05:52 AM 8/1/2006, you wrote: Okay, I know it's a space strategy game and the such, but what I don't know is... which version are yall using? Windows or DOS version? Reason I ask is, the DOS version likes to misbehave and well, I'm curious. James ___ Gamers mailing list ..

[Audyssey] anacreon interface with jfw?
Hello, I've downloaded Anacreon v2.1d windows version and am trying to give it a go, the quickstart guide intrigued me as did the site itself, easily navigatable without any adds or javascript. The menus and dialog boxes talk great, but when i actually go to new game and try to pick a game i don't get any feedback with jfw. How are others using this game as i'd like to do so? Thanks.

[Audyssey] Anacreon Space game with text?
Someone recently posted a list of online text based games that flind folks can play. One of the games on that list was Anacreon. I know this used to be a Dos based game and was recently converted to run under windows. Some folks said they played the windows based version..but I was never able to figure out how to do that with my Jaws screen reader? The person who posted the text game list said there was now an online text based Anacreon game with the ability to play up to 8 gamers at once? The link to this game worked sort of...grin. but who knows where it took me too? I was not able to find any anacreon game at the link posted. Has anyone got a working link to this anacreon Text based online game? Have you played it? I am biting my nails off wishing I can get access to this game soon! Any help offered will be greatly appreciaited. Thanks Robert ___ Gamers mailing list ..
