I presume you're asking where it could be downloaded from.  I've never seen FDI or HDI images of the game anywhere.

I have the original game, and the seller was kind enough to supply a copy on 3.5" diskettes in addition to the original 5.25" disks, but the disk format is different and unreadable on a standard PC.  There may be tools that let you do it though via low-level floppy disk access routines.  I tried EditDisk and couldn't get it to work.  (It may require PC98 hardware running Windows 95.)

If someone knows how to create a FDI file from a PC98 diskette using a standard PC floppy drive please share your knowledge! If not, kudos to anyone who uses their Google-fu and finds a good how-to site or walkthrough on doing it with some simple tool like EditDisk.

Found as a pair of .FDD files - converted them to .FDI with Virtual Floppy Image Converter. I included the original files and original file names just in case.

You, sir, are a hero of the highest caliber.  +1 rep.

(Now if we could just figure out how to extract images from this MSV format....)

Actually, if we could, Brocken wouldn't be my concern.  I'd be all over trying to port BTR to Windows.
