Colecovision Wargames help

[elviticus]

I was just reading the Wargames post and I remembered I have Colecovision Wargames, but I think I couldn't figure out what I was doing.

 

Anyone know of a good resource for Colecovision instructions (or how to play this game at least!) ?

Trying to remember (a friend of mine had it, used to play it all the time over there)...I think you use the keypad to go to a section of the United States that's being attacked, then you choose what weapon to counter what firepower that's coming in. Once the weapon is chosen, you position the cursor where to direct it, then send it on it's way...like if an enemy plane is coming in, and enemy plane of yours can destroy it, so you send the plane on an intercept course for it...a plane can also take out missiles...forget what else. Oh yeah, when the satelitte appears, that takes out EVERYTHING, so choose that (if it's lucky enough to appear in a sector) and fire away at everything!

 

Pretty cool game; can't remember all of it, but I think those are the basics. Just mess around with the keypad (if you don't have the WG overlays) and you should be able to figure it out.
