Right on, Commander! Posts: 398	I don't know where you got that idea from. They are completely different. Elite: TNK is exactly the same as original Elite, just coded in C instead of 6502 Assembler. Elite A is a dissassembled, fiddled with, then reassembled version of the orginal BBC B disc version, with numerous extra features and gameplay balance changes.

AA refugee Posts: 555	I got it from a description on Usenet. Anyway thanks. So what is the point of TNK? Just modern day compatibility?
