Rampart is one of my all-time favorites, despite the fact that I typically don't like most '90's games.  I have a Rampart cabinet that was converted to something else and will be my next project but I literally need everything so it won't be cheap.  This is the three player cab (they also made a 2 player).  Absolute great game.
