Need help building a Sente Moonquake

By an incredible stroke of luck someone at ACAM managed to get his hands on the ROM board for a super rare, prototype Sente game called Moonquake. The main board is just an Amiga 500, which he has ordered, but going by a picture I've seen of the complete board set there's a board he's missing which goes between the Amiga and the ROM board, I think I read somewhere it's for sound and I/O. Also I wouldn't be surprised if there are modifications to the Amiga which we'll need to know about, and if the bios is different.
I've looked around but info of any kind is VERY scarce for this game, there's hardly even any video of it playing, so does anyone have any schematics, quality pictures of the boards or any other useful info? I know it's a long shot but I'm hoping we can unearth enough info on the missing hardware to reconstruct it, or better yet (and even more unlikely) find a game the uses the same board which we can get it from.
The ultimate goal is to build a complete working game and have it in the line up at Funspot arcade in New Hampshire for the general public to play, this is not for someone's private collection, any volunteer help from experts will be MUCH appreciated!

Perhaps this picture will help you ?! (I hope so)

I've got that picture, thanks! It's definitely useful, although it doesn't show the whole board and some of the IC numbers are tough to see.
Here's a picture of ACAM's ROM board, and also one I believe is the full set:

And here's a picture I believe shows the complete boardset, this, the previous photo I just posted and the one you linked to are the only photos I have of the hardware. I don't remember the source of this photo:

I played this game at California Extreme, but I don't know anything technical about it unfortunately.
