Anybody remember this old Spectrum game?
Inspired by a similar thread...
It was a top-down maze-game, a bit like Gauntlet or Maziacs but the graphics were more "chunky" and quite detailed.
In the game the player controlled a tank and the idea was to fight your way through a maze-like city.
As you progressed through the city you'd find "supply depots" where you could fit an upgrade which help you with another part of the game.
Different upgrades helped with different things (IIRC).
You could, for example, fit a bigger engine to your tank so you could get past some baddies quickly and then, when you got to the next depot, you could replace the big engine with a mortar that allowed you to fire at enemy tanks before they could shoot you.
I'm not completely sure but it might have been produced by Electronic Arts. I vaguely recall it had the old EA "square-circle-triangle" logo on it but I'm not sure about that.
It was one of those games which I started a heap of times but never bothered finishing because it was actually quite frustrating but, with hindsight, if it's available for an emulator I'd like to give it another go.

Now I just need to find a decent sceppy emulator.
