Well I did. This is for those who were interested:

Find  : 7000 102D DC2A 5D40 B06E FFFC 673E
Change: same same same same same same 603E

This patch should NOT se used in conjuction with the other (inferior) patches
that I posted earlier. With this patch it is possible to select any historical
period without getting slaughtered in the duel. Hope it works for you too!

(For those technically inclined, what the patch does is to make the code always
branch as if the correct values were entered. Changed a BEQ "branch equal" to
BRA "branch always".)
