How to run the Fire Brigade Demo

        ================================





        This demo has been  compressed  to  save  disk space.  Before

    running the  game  the  files  must  first  be extracted from the

    archive (FB_DEMO.LZH).   The  compression program (LHARC.PRG) has

    been provided for this  purpose.    For those unfamiliar with the

    LHARC program, please follow this procedure.



        If  you  have  a  hard  disk  and  the  files  LHARC.PRG  and

    FB_DEMO.LZH are in the same directory, Double-Click on LHARC.PRG,

    type 'E FB_DEMO' at the command line and press return. 

    

        If you are  using floppies, put a formatted double sided disk

    in drive A and  the  disk  with FB_DEMO.LZH in drive B.  Now type

    'E B:\FB_DEMO A:\*.*' at the  command line.  If you have only one

    drive, you will probably prefer to have the FB_DEMO.LZH file in a

    ramdisk.



        To run the game,  Double-Click  on  FB_DEMO.PRG.    The  demo

    version is fully featured except that  it will quit automatically

    after 10 turns (after giving you your victory status, that is).



        The  icons  that appear at the bottom  of  the  Tactical  Map

    (Telephone, Binoculars, etc.) are the means by which  you control

    the game.  For example, to instruct 48th Panzer  corps  to attack

    Kiev, you would do the following.  Click on the  crosshairs icon.

    The cursor will change to reflect your choice.



        Now position the mouse  cursor  on  the 48th HQ and press the

    mouse button.  Keep it held  down  while  you  drag the cursor to

    Kiev.  When the cursor is over  Kiev, the word 'Kiev' will appear

    on the right of the menu bar.   Now release the mouse button.  An

    image of the 48th HQ will appear at Kiev  as  well  as the symbol

    for  it's  current  orders.    (Note  that this image is  only  a

    signpost  and  cannot  be  manipulated  in  the same manner as an

    actual HQ!)



        The next step is too set the HQ  orders  to attack.  To this,

    select the 'Attack' icon (the thin, solid arrow) and  use  it  to

    click  on  48th.    The  'Orders' signpost will alter to show the

    changed orders.



        The game is fairly easy to play once this system is mastered,

    so further explanation shouldn't be necessary (There  isn't  room

    here anyway!).  Of course, if you have  trouble  figuring it out,

    you can always buy it!



        One way or another, I hope you enjoy the game.
