If i remember well, it can be played multiplayer using rs232c cable (nullmodem) connecting two computers. It's not uncommon for new computers to lack rs232.

Read the documentation. Cabelmodem and serial connection can be emulated by DOSBox into a TCP/IP connection.

I finished it! At first, the trouble seems to be survival, since being killed/captured puts an end to your service file (i.e., savegame). However, I noticed that you can crash into the ground and eject onto enemy ground several times without dying [after you have made some progress].

More importantly, the log is only saved when quitting to DOS, so you can circumvent dying by closing DOSBox. This 'crashes' the game and thus prevents the log from updating. Another way is to keep a copy of the log around.

Also, for me it was tricky to find out where to go in Europe/Update 7/Saviour (one of the secret missions). It appears the sector indicated only points to your base, not necessarily your main target
