Bolo on Macintosh SE

I've been trying to play Bolo on my Mac SE (4MB) with System 6.0.8, and when I get to the actual game screen it bombs out with an address error. It plays fine on Mini vMac (booting from the first install disk for 6.08). What should I investigate to figure out this issue?

 
No ID - just 'Sorry, a system error occurred: address error'. This happens at the beginning of the tutorial, and when I attempt to set up 'standard autopilot' while playing on practice mode. I'm running with the plain-old Finder, not MultiFinder.

 
ID=02 Address Error
The Motorola 68000 microprocessor can access memory in increments of one byte (8 bits), one word (16 bits), or one long word (32 bits). The microprocessor can access a byte of information at an odd or even memory address. But it must access a word or long word at an even memory address. So, when the microprocessor attempts to read or write a word or long word at an odd address, you see this error. Since that's a 50/50 proposition when running random code, this one shows up quite often.
