There was a website i stumbled across years ago that
was really really neat. The person who put it up had
obviously decoded the combat sytem of AR because he
had an AR battle simulator on his site. You could set
your stats and choose your equipment and then fight
against different monsters. He also had downloadable
sprites in GIF format for all the monsters in the
game. I havn't been able to find this website in years
and in fact forget how i had orginally found it (still
have all the monster sprites on my old PC somewhere
though). Anyone remember the site I'm talking about?
