This was the last game the Cinematronics spin-off company Vectorbeam made.
A two-player only game, Warrior featured a top-down view of two warriors with swords using vector graphics. The play field was a detailed, brightly colored overlay.
Each player used a joystick to move both the warrior. The game was time-limited, and the warrior with the most kills at the end was the winner. A kill was scored with either a series of good sword hits to the opponent, or by an opponent falling into one of the two pits.

Comment: "My very favorite vector game of all time. Brings back sweet memories of a great time in my life. I only wish i could find one!
The game was revolutionary for its time, using the screen backdrop the way it did. Awesome."

Comment: "It's very cool. Although the "256 colors"
statement isn't true. It's a monochrome
vector display with an actual 3D playfield
that is lit by blacklight.
I found some eproms and piggybacked
"Tailgunner" onto the motherboard on
my Warrior. The amazing thing about the
game is that it has no microprocessor - it's all done in discrete logic!

Comment: "This is the most important game of my youth. I played it only once, in a Farrell's Ice Cream Shoppe in San Diego, and I dreamt about it ever since. It took till today to do the web research. HUZZAH! It rules!"
