Part one of two of a handful of battles in Combat for the Atari 2600. Combat is an early multiplayer game in which two players go head-to-head in a variety of vehicle battles. Despite its primitive gameplay and graphics, it's actually a fun little diversion.

In Round One, the red tank (MacDaddyNook) and the blue tank (Duck) go head-to-head in a typical multiplayer map filled with various blocks to obstruct shots and provide cover.

In Round Two, the green tank (MacDaddyNook) and blue tank (Duck) revisit the same map as before, only this time their shots ricochet off the boundaries and stuctures, allowing for more strategic shots.

Finally, in Round Three, the red tank (MacDaddyNook) and blue tank (Duck) battle it out in an open field. However, when they are not shooting, they appear invisible to the screen in a "fog of war"-like manner, making judging where one's opponent is a challenge.
