- *** ICONWAR 1.0 ***
-
-
- ICONWAR 1.0 (for Windows) is game where you and your
- computer opponent stake out territories on a 9 X 9
- grid. Then taking turns, you each try to "hit" your
- opponent's locations. When you do hit one, you get
- another turn, until one of you has taken over all of
- the opponent's locations.
-
- When the game begins, you have the option of setting up
- from 5 (the default) to 25 territories each. You can also
- allow the enemy (the Badrovians) to auto-play (the default)
- or you may choose to initiate their turn each time. You can
- also disable the sound.
-
- Hardware requirements are the usual for any Windows programs,
- but as this game was written in Visual Basic, it also requires
- the file VBRUN100.DLL to be present in order to work. This
- file has been distributed with the program. You do need a mouse.
-
- Instructions are included within the program but it is not
- difficult to figure out and is suitable for almost any age.
-
- Yo will find, though that it may not be as easy as you might
- think to win. We have played many games in testing this program,
- and nobody ever shut-out the Badrovians.
-
- You should have the following files:
- ICONWAR.EXE The main program
- VBRUN100.DLL Required to run
- READIT.DOC Additional documentation
- READIT.COM " " self-displaying

- by typing the drive letter (A, B, C or whatever it's
