Mail Order Monsters

[Puke]

never heard of Mail Order Monsters? GET OFF MY THREAD!

kidding. MOM was sort of like the modern (90's) console games "Monster Rancher." you are a stablemaster, and you have a fixed ammount of cash. you use this money to buy monsters, and then train them, and then genetically modify them with different things like chloropLasts or tentacles, or tails, or firebreath. you buy them weapons (melee weapons, bLasters, tank guns, tac-nukes, everything) and equipment. then you send them out and controll them as they fight your buddy, or the computer.

there is a strategic map where you manuver to fight in terrain that is favorable to your monster (some get on better in water and swamps, others better in mountains, some of the bastards fly). also on the strategic map, you can launch your nukes at each other.

if you make it down to tactical combat, thats where you use your claws, firebreath, autocannons, flamethrowers, shocking grasp, acid touch, tank guns, laser cannons, and anything else you might have.

Such a great game. made in the mid 80s, if i remember. I played it on a C64 at my friends house.
