From the images on the this site, the game is related to the Laydock series.

Does anyone know the name of this game?

I know this game as Scramble Laydock... There are 2 versions. One version starts with a vertical scroll, the other with a horizontal one. Because of the horizontal scroll the game is for MSX2+ in stead of the mentioned MSX2.

Well, TOSEC does not have every msx game....

I just found out about some other games (I saw an add on MSX CPU - brazilian magazine) that I never heard about, "Warlords", "Ransack" and "Talef"....

Also, there's a lot of Korean games I never saw, like Cyborg Z, Dragon Story, Micro Xevious (msx1) and Dr.Hello

Also a Brazilian(?) game "Palhada City", very, very rare....

Slotman, does "Palhada City" exists? I´ve seen some ads in CPU MSX, but I never seen any screenshot or disk image of it...

Yup, it does!

There was a copy on "Riosoft" (MSX softhouse here in Rio de Janeiro) on display, but noone ever bought that because it was too expensive.

Also I heard someone (on a msx meeting, dont remember who) once that said that he had the game, but could not dump it due to the copy protection scheme used...

I thought this one was Super Laydock 2...
I played this game on a cracked disk, it came together with The Tenor.
(I never got past level 1 or 2 though...*_*)

Found the dsk in the tosec under the filename "ZZZ-UNK-LAYDOCK 2.zip" if anyone is curious.

Thanks rolins, I found the Tenor as well. Not on the same disk, but on one of those ZZZ ones
Too bad both are the demo version, I distinctly remember starting in a different level.
