On a side note, I was looking at the schematics to warlords and in the
video output section it says:
The color prom circuitry recieves playfield (area0-area1) and motion
object (gry0-gry2) information and assigns a color or shade of grey(If
using a B&W monitor) before it is sent on to the video display.
128V and 128H from the sync generator circuit determines in which
corner of the monitor the active video is displayed. When 128V is high
and 128H is low, the video is in the lower left corner of the monitor.
(Semi detailed diagram showing 2 chips inputs and outputs)
I don't know if this means the game can work on a color monitor, but
is someone REALLY wants me to type in the diagram, I will give it a
try. Someone please look these pinouts over and post them to wiretap if
they look ok. LAter, Bill

Actually, Atari Warlords could either be in B/W or color. Atari
released an upright 2 player version of Warlords which had a B/W
raster monitor.
I have the manual (and drawing package) for the upright version.
In case anyone needs it, here are the switch settings for the
upright version.
