The graphical version was from (I believe) ftp.cica.indiana.edu , and 
CorewarPro (or something like that) is available as corwpXX.lzh from soda.
berkley.edu.  CorewarPro isn't as good graphically as the program from 
indiana, but it can be ICWS 86, 88 or even X-Hill compatible.  It has a 
built in editor, core inspector, etc.  CorewarPro is the best all around 
system for the PC that I've come across yet (but the graphics aren't that 
great).

Good Luck
