Believe it or not, DEADLINE was even made into a game!
There were little playing pieces as well, just so you could move around the board. I based it on the game CLUE, in that you needed to find certain villains, use certain weapons, travel in certain vehicles, and make your hunt on certain planets. At the end, you had to take your captives to the prison planet in the center of the board.
That is pretty much all I can remember about this game though....Aside from this board (which I totally hacked out because I didn't like this assignment! heh heh), none of the other pieces have survived the years.
