A couple of other FTP's I've found:
ftp://ftp.3drealms.com/
ftp://ftp.funcom.com/
I know Sierra used to have an FTP, don't know if a mirror is available anywhere.

Apogee/3D Realms is already on the list (it's in the "Active developers" section so the FTP address isn't duplicated in the FTP section), didn't know about Funcom, seems like it's focused on MMOs.

Here's a one-level demo of a rather obscure German vertical top-down shooter called
Final Impact:

Okay, I figured out the version numbers for most of the SW3DG titles, and updated the post above accordingly.

The installed game from that link, when I started it for playing.

Well, frankly I didn't (yet) test out most of those versions (at least the installers were preserved intact by the Wayback Machine!), and TaleWorlds people seem to have never bothered detailing the version history of their game. I'ts pretty possible that v0.704 has some issues. Just to be sure, you can try installing v0.703 and then patching it to v0.704 with
mountandblade_0704_upgrade.exe.
Then again, it could be some incompatibility problem on your machine, what system configuration did you try to run this on?
