Well, it came today, and I have been playing it.
Good news is that it runs fine on the A3000 under any KS version.
It is not HD Installable.

Graphics are mediocre.  Story is interesting, but poorly written,
documentation stinks big time, many aspects are not clearly
mentioned or even mentioned at all, (what is an emergency beacon for?)

Playability is very very low.  

All in all this thing suffers A LOT from then designed for 512k A500
syndrome.  Stellar 7 is a MUCH better game, I bought that a couple
of weeks ago and it is much more enjoyable.

Sound effects on Armour-Geddon are poor as well.  
This one looked good in the magazine ad, but is really poorly documents,
(documented) and has very low playability.  I can kill quite a few of the
enemy ships/stations, but still cannot even complete my first mission.

Stellar-7 is a similar style game, is HD installable, also runs on the
A3000 under 2.0, and has GREAT sound effects and very good graphics.

I cannot recommend Armour-Geddon, despite the ads.
