"For
Your Eyes Only" briefing: The British spy ship St. Georges has mysteriously
sunk off the Albanian Coast, with the Automatic Targeting Attack Computer
(ATAC) onboard! Whoever has the ATAC can order British submarines to launch
their nuclear missiles --- even at Great Britain itself. Sir Timothy Havelock
had located the wreck of the St. Georges for M.I.6, but he was killed and
his notes stolen. The enemies of Great Britain would pay handsomely for
the ATAC, so every mercenary and enemy agent around the Ionian Sea is after
it.
Your
mission: Your only lead is an assassin-for-hire who might have carried
off Havelock's notes. The trail takes you to breathtaking Cortina, where
lies and danger are as deadly as the speeding slopes, and to the bottom
of the Ionian Sea, whose usually calm depths explode with peril. Desperately
you race against time and rivals while encountering deceitful beauties,
deadly henchmen and cliff-hanging excitement.
Module

Sheets & a Stand Up Screen w/ Villain's headquarters.
One
player. Ages 8 & up. Victory Games / Avalon Hill from 1986. ISBN 0912515430
NOTE:
Ownership of the Basic Game is required to play modules & supplements.
Additional
info:
The
007, James Bond items from Victory Games were divided into three areas:
Action
Episodes: There are four of these that I can find --- "Goldfinger",
"Live & Let Die",
"Man With The Golden Gun" and "You
Only Live Twice". These involved gameboards or mapboards, Counters,
Cards and interaction by a player involving some episode, usually from
the movie.
Adventure
Modules: These are --- The "007
Basic Set", "A View
To A Kill", "Dr. No",
"For Your Eyes Only", "Goldfinger",
"Goldfinger II - Man With
The Midas Touch", "Live
And Let Die", "Man
With The Golden Gun", "Octopussy",
"You Only Live
Twice" and "You
Only Live Twice II - Back Of Beyond". These were more traditional role-playing
games, with characters built up, dice rolling and imagination used.
Supplements:
These are --- "For
Your Information", "Gamesmaster
Pack", "Q Manual", "Thrilling
Locations" and "Villains".
These were added enhancements for the Adventure Modules.
The
only oddities in the above were the "Bond
Assault Game", which had a mix of Episode & Adventure game and
could be played either way, and "On
Her Majesty's Secret Service", which used Action & NPC cards.
An
important note regarding Avalon Hill games
- It was not unusual for Avalon Hill to re-publish most of their games
with 2nd, 3rd or more Editions. Sometimes the game components changed,
sometimes they didn't. If your game components do not correspond exactly
with what is listed, do not despair. You may just have to do a little more
checking to insure its completeness.
