"IBM New Releases"

Spear of Destiny, the full-price sequel to Wolfenstein, is about to
have some more life breathed into it. Over the next four months,
three new mission disks will be released for the game offering more
levels of Nazi-blasting fun. It is rumoured that the graphics have
been totally redrawn and that the mission disk places new weapons
into the capable hands of B.J.Blaskozwki - Dorian Black

Has anyone heard of this ? Or has anyone heard anything from Apogee
about these missions disks ?

FormGen has already sent out brochures to registered owners of SOD. You
may buy the new episodes separately, or together along with the original
on a CD. The CD includes a game randomizer, also.

I don't know whether the WAD (or whatever it's called) can be played
from the CD.

The ads hints that the new episodes require a strategy to complete,
unlike the original episode where you just shot everything on sight.
This worries me. I liked the simplicity of the original and don't
want to be bothered with a "plot."

Anyone else try these episodes yet ??
