** WINGS OF THUNDER V1.0 **
The year is 2023, and the worlds top scientists (working together to find ways
to make living conditions better for the earth's inhabitants) created a
unique type of artificial lifeform. They were astounded to find that their
creation has humanlike qualities and is highly intelligent. All of them
agreed that this new discovery would surely benefit mankind in one way or
another. They decided to call their creation a "Mandroid". However, to fully
understand how this being could help the human race, an experiment had to
be performed. The scientists and top government officials got together and
worked out a strategy to create 50 Mandroids, place them on a remote part of
the globe, then return 5 years later to see how they progressed. This top
secret project was called "The Mandroid Experiment"
The year = 2028. The government brass sends out high altitude surviellence
aircraft to take pictures of the Mandroid area. The following day, the
scientists and officials gathered together to inspect the newly developed
pictures. Anticipation was high and there was chatter all about. Topics of
discussion were "How did they survive?", "Were they able to live off the
land?", "Were they able to develop any new kinds of technologies that man
hasn't thought of yet?". After viewing the first few pictures, everyone in
the room was quiet, motionless, and had a look of shock on their faces. In
total disbelief, it was evident that there were not 50 Mandroids but hundreds,
perhaps thousands. They've discovered how to duplicate themselves!. Even more
frightening was the fact that they have become alarmingly hostile. They've
learned how to develop primitive weapons, such as tanks and missile launchers!
It's obvious that their intentions is to dominate the world. There have also
been reports that they've been slaughtering innocent women and children in
their conquest. An emergency is at hand.
At this point in history, the world is at peace. Most of the weapons of
destruction on the planet have been destroyed. Luckily, stockpiles of bombs
such as air to ground missiles and rocket launchers have been kept hidden
away in underground bunkers, but there are no more jets on the planet to
launch them from! Fortunately, a couple of retired air force generals
were able to scrape up an old A10 Warthog that was barely flyable, but it
could still get off the ground. The plane, they say, was affectionately
nicknamed "Wings of Thunder" back in it's heyday. Luck is on our side!!
It's time to eliminate the Mandroids. Government agents, posing as traitors,
infiltrated the Mandroid colonies, and in the process installed homing
devices all around the landscape at strategic locations. To locate these
devices, dual homing device detectors have been installed on the aircraft.
Your mission is to tune into the frequencies of these homing devices, pay a
visit to all these important locations, and destroy everything in your path.
A base has been setup close to where the Mandroid activities are. Should you
accept this mission, view the Missions log for the finer details.
The Mandroid Onslaught Must Be Stopped!!!
