     I have had trouble getting SotB working on my Amiga also. However, 
  a friend of mine has an A1000 which can RUN SotB!!! 

     Being naturally curious, I opened both A1000s and swapped some chips.
  I found that one of the three special chips was causing the problem.
  Paula, Denise, or Agnes. I had to return my friends computer before I could
  narrow it down further, but, that should get you headed in the right 
  direction.
