>Where do you get Rogue for the VAX?

I do believe that some of the latest "standard" versions just
plain compile under VMS. You'll need a C compiler and a MMK-type
make utility. I also believe nethack is available, too.

A different branch off the Rogue evolutionary tree is Moria.
There are many versions of this floating around... most notably:

Huh? Since when does an Alpha have the 1G boot drive limitation? This
limitation only applies to some of the older VS3100's, AFAIK.
