BATTLE VALLEY TYPED IN by PHANTOM LORD (MEDWAY BOYS). EDITED BY PARASITE. SCENARIO The peace summit was succesful. An army treaty has been signed. All medium range missiles have been destroyed... except for two which have been captured by a group of Terrorists who plan to destroy the Western World unless their fellow terrorists are released from a penitentiary in the United States. Your task, as a mercenary employed by the United States Government, is to capture the terrorists bases in their desert outpost - Battle Valley - and eliminate the two missiles. AIM OF THE GAME. The player starts off at his central H.Q. and his aim is to progress there to capture all terrorist bases, three located in either direction. Then the two missiles have to be destroyed in their silos, found before the countdown reaches zero, otherwise the missiles will be launched and the world destroyed. In between the bases lie many different weapons, which steadily increase in speed and complexity as more ground is covered. Most of the weapons can be eliminated by using the helicopter. The remainder must be destroyed using the tank. Note that the terrorist bases and the missile silos themselves can only be destroyed by the tank. The helicopter has a winch which is used to collect pontoons for memding broken bridges or to collect extra ammunition from rooftops. The tank collects ammunition when it is halted on the grid at an ammo dump. CONTROLS After the game has loaded press fire to access the options page.
