My first mech-themed game for my first computer. This game was absolutely amazing for its time. Great graphics for the pre-accelerated GPU era, and a lot of strategy to be found for such a simple premise. *sigh...* Thanks for posting this little retrospective, it brought a smile to my face.
Very easy game to exploit, you could always max out a mech with plasma guns, then tweak the duel settings so the enemy had to get in very close. When he did, you could unload all your plasma cannons right into his face. Typically a 1-salvo kill, even against large mechs.
i used to haggle during negotiations like crazy. I'd wager tons of money, tell them I wouldn't use weapons I didn't have anyway (like mines), get them to not use weapons they DID use, and then set the arena to mini. Game Breaker! lol had lots of fun with this one at age 13.

This game was my favorite DOS game. I'd love to play it again.
