There are various options, launching amiga games via fs-uae (it's not necessary to extract zip-files (and it's not necessary to mount extracted cue/iso-files)):
- start via fs-uae configuration file for each game
- start via combination of configuration file and command line
- start games via command line directly
Important : get an official version of CD32 Kickstart 3.1 ROM (and for some games an extended Kickstart ROM)

FS-UAE, FS-UAE Launcher & FS-UAE Arcade (incl. portable mode)-start Launcher.exe
-set:
amiga-model : CD32
kickstart-rom : 3.1
extended kickstart rom : cd32 extended rom
cd drive : a cd32-game as zip (or iso file)
-save configuration file (now it's saved to C:\Users\your_username\Documents\FS-UAE\Configurations)
-it contains this:
[fs-uae]
amiga_model = CD32
cdrom_drive_0 = Path_to_your_roms\mygame123.zip
kickstart_ext_file = Path_to_your_extended_Kickstart-ROM/CD32 Extended-ROM.rom
kickstart_file = Path_to_your_Kickstart-ROM/Kickstart-ROM.rom
-rename the config file to game name (e.g. mygame123.fs-uae)
-start it from commandline:
"Path_to_FS-UAE\launcher.exe" "Path_to_your_configuration-file\mygame123.fs-uae"
I've created a batch-file-generator (with fullscreen). just drag n drop the game-zip-file over this CREATOR.bat:
@echo off
set model=CD32
set extended=Path_to_EXTENDED_KICKSTART\EXTENDED-KICKSTART.rom
set kickstart=Path_to_KICKSTART\KICKSTART.rom
echo [fs-uae] > "%~n1.fs-uae"
echo amiga_model = %model% >> "%~n1.fs-uae"
echo kickstart_ext_file = %extended% >> "%~n1.fs-uae"
echo kickstart_file = %kickstart% >> "%~n1.fs-uae"
echo cdrom_drive_0 = %~1 >> "%~n1.fs-uae"
echo fullscreen = 1 >> "%~n1.fs-uae"
-add it to AM (depending to your paths):
executable "C:\attract\EMU\amiga\Launcher.exe"
args "[romfilename]"
rompath C:\attract\EMU\amiga\ROMS\CD32
