"Power points are proof against magic."
In dull, old-fashioned board games like chess and checkers, the "defending" piece gets removed quietly from the game board with the "attacker" taking the square without an ounce of hostility. In ARCHON, such docility and rank defeatism on the part of the defender is not permitted. The squares on the board must be fought for! Any attempt to occupy a square held by an opponent results in the expansion of the disputed square into a full-fledged combat arena, and then "IT'S CLOBBERIN' TIME!!!"
This track is a re-imagining of the theme music composed by Tommy V. Dunbar for "ARCHON: The Light And The Dark", the classic action-strategy game from Free Fall Associates released by Electronic Arts in 1983. This rock-oriented cover of the theme music is inspired by the game soundtrack from the Commodore 64 version which has a tempo of about 133.5 BPM.
[Please note: as this un-mastered track was mixed using headphones, I recommend that it be listened to via headphones/earbuds to ensure the best listening experience.]
P.S. You can hear Tommy V. Dunbar's original recording of the themes to ARCHON and its sequel ARCHON II at the following link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lG8EtB0roA
