Yeah, the UK first edition hardcover had this cover. Later prints (HB and SB) had the regular artwork of Rand, Loial and Selene.

I'm really proud to present my fully documented source code for #Elite on the #Commodore64.

This is the original 1985 source, recently released by Ian Bell, with every single line of code explained.

It’s a thing of beauty. Enjoy!

Here's something I didn't even know existed: Elite Legend for the #ZXSpectrum 128.

It's an enhanced #Elite, not unlike Elite-A, and includes the original #BBCMicro Constrictor and Thargoid missions. That is so cool!
