as I asked on the commit, is this actually the full thing because it looks like it's just a model 2 PCB stack.

if it's like the original (and most other Sega games of this type) it's actually worthless as far as emulation is concerned without dumps of the terminal boards and communication boards (there are multiple PCB stacks on them, yet for every single case we only have a single piece dumped)

typically the setup seems to be

DISPLAY PCB (x-board / system16/18) (with comms sub-board) -> dedicated Central communication PCB (game win/lose logic likely runs here) -> Multiple terminal PCBs for user input (each also with their own comms sub-boards)

so I fear this is another case where only the DISPLAY PCB part is dumped, adding Model 2 hardware to the list of hardware confirmed for use as display boards.

based on some DU stuff that was never added it looks like Taito had similar multi-board setups too.

I'm glad to see some parts dumped in all cases, because you never know if / when the remaining ones might show up, but for all the ones we have so far the answer to that question appears to be 'never' :/ I know there was a full set for one such setup on ebay a couple of years ago, but the seller split that up and Charles only managed to pick up a single piece of it.
