So who or what are "These Assassins"..... Well forget any threatening insinuation from the name, we are a real friendly bunch of Amiga users who have know each other for longer than some of us would care to say. I think I can say in all honesty that we are all the wrong side of the big 21...But then again that could be the right side... As for names. The Assassins are..... Bill Woodcock Bryan King Artie Carhart Stu Morton Firstly lets get the thanks out of the way..... It had to come Yes The ASSASSINS on CD backed by David of Weird Science This CD has had a lot of work,and late late nights, to get to the Quality you would expect from us. We have increased the Divi's for British Telecom with the numerous phone calls we have made to each other, so shareholders expect a big drop now that we have the CD up and running We wanted a games disk that has a Menu so that you could play, direct from the CD, not having to transfer to floppy's before you could enjoy them, Our utilities disks and 1-200 of our compilations are on this CD, and the facility is on the disk, if you require them on floppy's We also have indicated what device you need to play these games, and giving you the opertunity to go straight into Arcade-Shoot ups-Cards & Quiz Board Games-Misc Games or tax your brains with Puzzles All in all we beleve we have put this CD together, to give you hours of enjoyment We must give Andy a big thank you for the loan of his CD32 for testing, without it, we would of been really struggling Also our thanks to Brian of Valley PD for supplying the PD wares although we have used a lot of the games from the ASI comps, there is quite a lot of games not seen light on our collection as yet Now down to what we are all about.... Basically we new each other way back in the days of the good old C64. But the group started around 1988 when Bryan and Artie met up, then Bill and Stu completed the group. As we all moved over to the amiga, we started to collect quite a few public domain disks between us. Now if you are quite new to the area of Public Domain,things are a lot different now. We were all used to paying quite a bit of money for a disk only to find that the disk was sometimes not even a quarter full. Together we thought it would be a good idea to try and compile these disks for ourselves and so that is how it all began. FUNNILY ENOUGH WITH ASI-GAMES-COMPILATION-VOL ONE With us all being in regular contact with various Public Domain libraries etc, we sent them copies of these disk, in exchange for a new game or whatever... Soon we were being asked by these libraries if we had done any more compilations and from there we just kept on swapping and compiling. Slowly we noticed that more and more Public Domain libraries were stocking these disks and they were becoming a bit of a talking point. This was not something that we intended but was nice to see anyway. I hope you agree that each and every one of our compilations are good value for money. I also beleive that as these disks are now so popular that they will also benefit the games programmers. This is likely because, Public Domain programmers will get there works seen by hopefully a bigger audience and even Shareware titles will be a lot better distributed and maybe attract more registrations etc. We have good relations with quite a few of the better known games programmers and they seem to be happy with the situation and for us to use their programs. As you can imagine we must get all these games from somewhere, this is where all of our friends and contacts come into it, if it wasn't for their help and that of the programmers you wouldn't be reading this waffle. So even though you all get a mention in the greeting section, in our Catalogue Disk I would like to take this opertunity to thank you all for everything... If you would like to obtain further ASI disk or would like to know about the ASI user group then contact Stu for further details at the following address or call on the usual telephone number.
