                    WARLORDS by ATARI
                    -----------------

These ROMS are from an original ATARI board. The board worked for
about 15 minutes before failing. Hopefully, the ROMS should be ok.

This game is a more sophisticated version of breakout and could be
played by upto four players via paddle controllers. It used a
6502 processor.

The images are located as follows:

N                          037154.1M
--------------------------------------

Note that 037159 appears twice on the board. 
The board serial No. is 005375 ( hand written ) and has the markings
'A036434-01' and date stamped 'Apr 23 1981'.

Atari tended to use seperate audio boards. This was not present - although
it's not difficult to feed through an external amp.
