Thomas,
Hi from a long ways away!
I recently bought Omega at a closeout table for $10 and it is the best
$10 I have ever spent on a computer game!
The game comes with  a large programming manual which is makes any form
of copy protection really unnecessary, since you'll never figure the game
out with out it.  The game does come with a few tanks that are not compiled
and you should be able to look at there source code in the editor.
I trust you have the PC version since I found your message in the ibm.games
area...  It is a great game, I made Omega Clearance in about 6 hours.
I have built many tanks and if you'd like to exchange some (compiled form
only) let me know!  I also have some I downloaded from GEnie which can
consistently beat my best!
