Forget my previous comment about not using SETUP to get the sound working. It's ok to use and gets you the fx and music!

DOSBox 0.73 can run the game! Just don't run SETUP for the sound or you'll get error messages and if you don't have the videos disable them in the options menu or the game will hang on the bulletin board.
Other than that, it really does work...

Doesn't work any better than in 0.70...

After exiting the intro, the intro gets incorrectly loaded for the second time. After exiting the second instance of intro, the game returns an unhandled extension and crashes DOSBox altogether.

"Exit to error: Pagefault didn't correct page" when trying to get forward from opening intro.
