Did you get a version without the intro? Of course it's in poor taste,
it made absolutely no claim to taste. I'm not sure I see the
anti-feminist aspect, although some prudes find anything having to do
with sex to be anti-feminist.

My major complaint is technical. The game should do some sort of check
for CPU speed at startup. I have a 386 system, and before I can use the
'P' command to slow things down, my... hum, "defensive weapon" has been
destroyed. Other members of the family want an Amiga version.
