In the Rules for this game it states 3 Lives? On Boot up settings you start with 2 Lives .. So the setting should be changed to starting with 3 Lives?

It was changed some years ago, there was no vote that I could find though, it was just "this should be 3 lives", someone else agreed, and it was done.

The only reason it would be changed to 2 lives in MAME, would be because that is what the factory settings are. I guess it's possible that factory settings may vary from region to region, too...

TY for responding . How about the Newer Rom sets they are not listed under the same Rules? Is this going to be changed for them?

The 1942 special rules have now been replicated to the clone romsets that have been added in later Mame versions.

Cheers,
