After an exhaustive search via FidoNet and the InterNet I've come to the conclusion that there is not an adequate method of obtaining the latest version of Operation Overkill II (one of the Best online BBS games ever).
The following files are the latest BBS released version:
Main Game Files OOII v1.20
Welcome to an update release of Operation: Overkill, version 1.20!
Hello, fellow gamers! This new release of Overkill was designed to
make life easy. Hooray! We have been getting a lot of feedback from
new players of Overkill, and I decided it was time to compensate for
them and to make the game more enjoyable for newbies. Now, on the
other hand, life for the veterans will hopefully face the same vile
challenges as in previous versions.
One major change is that the TELNET connections should run smoother
this is in part to a New CRT unit and a good partner. :)
What I really aspire from is player feedback, so the more comments I
get about the game (good, bad, or ugly), the more pleasing it is to
write such games. I can only try to make the game better for all
players with opinions straight from the players. So if you get a
chance, please write or send a message with your comments. I'd love
to hear from you!
Thanks again for your patience on this time of this release. We (the
testers and programmers) of Operation: Overkill, want to produce
quality entertainment. Bug testing and play testing take oodles amount
of time, but in the long run, it's better gaming for all of us. So,
have fun with this version, and may you find Overkill napping in his
bungalo!

OOII v1.20 OOIITERM Files
Introducing with the Operation: Overkill game, a color terminal
program, with sound, OOTERM.
What is a "term" program exactly? In Overkill's case, OOTERM is a
separate program that can be used by remote players when they are
playing Overkill on a BBS. OOTERM is called a "terminal" program because
of its ability to communicate with the BBS and acts in a similar fashion
to other terminal/communications programs. However, OOTERM doesn't have
all of the fancy gadgets that the full-fledged communication programs do.
Instead, OOIITERM simply communicates and interprets any special commands
that the Overkill game sends out.
The main reason a remote player would want to use this OOTERM program
when playing Overkill is for speed. However, the OOTERM also adds
sound effects which greatly enhance the gameplay.
This package should be available for all of users where an Overkill game
on a BBS is found. It also might be beneficial for Sysops to post a
message in an Overkill game (NEWS.ASC or in the Communications Post)
directing them to the files section where OOT_120.ZIP is avaiable.
Also, please note that the Overkill Ansiterm can not be used for local
mode play. The Ansiterm only works remotely from a player's system.
For local players, the Overkill program automatically interprets the
text in Ansiterm mode (even though no remote caller is conneted) for
for increased speed and local sound.
