The Artillery basic game for the Apple II

Hi all! Im having a hard time finding artillery. Its the old basic game from the 70s for the apple II. I know its supposed to be on the game_01a.dsk file here: ftp://ftp.apple.asimov.net/pub/apple_II/images/games/collections/Game_Disks

If I try and open that image in applefritter on windows it says cant detect format and errors out. I searched for game_01a.dsk in google and every image that comes up results in the same error. I used ADTPro to transfer it to disk on my apple IIc but when I try to boot the disk it drops me to a machine language error it seems. If I boot ProDos and do a catalog on that disk it doesnt show artillery!

Is there anyone who has artillery (the original basic version not super artillery) that can drop it on a DSK image and put up for download somewhere? Thanks a bunch.

The game image is one byte too long. Shave off the last byte
