Roadwar 2000 - I would like this game please.

I have downloaded versions (as my floppies don't work on my floppyless PCs) but they don't run the way I've heard that your titles on GOG are able to on modern PCs. If this game could find its way here that'd be great.

There is Community Wishlist specifically for this purpose.
Why oh why does that title sound familiar? I know I owned it waaaaay back when...

Ah yes. Tough game, it was. I think I played this on my old Apple ][
As far as the Community Wishlist, thank you to whomever already added Roadwar (I left my vote).

But the Community Wishlist page, could be augmented with a few larger font lines for us older folk possibly "more idiot proof it, especially if there are some sensitive to protocol, & wishing for this forum to be free of the clutter of the occasional (who am I kidding it's probably frequent) 'kickstarter for inclusion' but there is no section of the forum that I saw to throw old games names out there. My impression is I like what GOG has started here. But in viewing it's assets I disagree and believe general discussion posts bringing up games not on the service is the right place. And maybe that the conversations (ads, sales & upcoming) might require their own section.

Don't mean to step on toes but this post did have an agenda. I try to fart outside whenever possible, because as you see it's embarrassing to be smelt or heard. I'll leave you largely alone here as my nostalgic epeen mostly swells for 80's G.I.Joes and Legos (Defender of the Crown got it's remake, & I still haven't played it). If in my wall of text I mentioned anything to be included in the Requested Site Feature I'll rely on you to spoil me, & thank you here.

Thanks.

The problem is that individuals posting *I wist this game or that feature* one-liners benefits no one and uselessly clutter the forums. They are auto-ignored by site maintainers and most forum goers alike and are quickly buried and forgotten. Voting on wishlist at least gives indication how many pll want any given feature or game giving some usefull data for site maintainers. You can also leave comments on wishlist items on why something should or shouldn't be added to GOG.

If you want to start discussion about game or feature, feel free to. But at least take some time to write proper intial post so others have something to discuss or comment on.
I didn't even realise there was a DOS version. Now that I've seen it, it's even uglier than the C64 version. I think I'd rather see a remake of this than the game brought back as it is.
What are the chances of this finding its way to GOG? The past several years I have been wishing in one hand and...

Is there a better way to progress this. My years of emails to my best guess owners of the property have never returned much progress. I thought with the exposure of this site and its influence in contacts that it would have a better chance than I have. I understand that the forum posters that have posted would prefer that I not invade their sanctuary with a few paragraphs, rest assured I purchase a game for every couple sentences just to encourage the prospect of Roadwar 2000 in this "modern world" of ours (I may play those titles at some point).
