Default munnra - Starflight 2: Trade Routes of the Cloud Nebula

Hi,

I saw that you have Starflight (and that it is currently the 4th highest-rated game in Abandonia's entire collection), but that you don't seem to have Starflight 2 for download.

I bought Starflight 2 about fifteen years ago when I found it in the bargain box at CompUSA. Seven or eight years ago when I realized many of my old floppies were going bad, I made a disk image of my original Starflight 2 floppy, and I still have that 720K disk image around. I can send it to you if you need it.

Starflight 2's copy protection relied on the map provided in-game: at some point, you would be asked a question like "how many orange stars are there in sector 040x120?" The sector and the color of stars would change each time, and if you got the answer wrong, you would be attacked by the Interstellar Police for piracy. I can no longer find my original map and/or game box, but I do have a couple scans that I downloaded ages ago from somewhere on the Internet, which I can provide if needed.

I don't have box-cover art, but I do remember that http://www.mobygames.com/game/starfl...ameCoverId,29/ is exactly what my game box looked like, so you could probably use those images if you needed to.

This is the first time I've uploaded anything to Abandonia; please let me know what I should do next. Thanks for a great site!
