YOU HAVE RECEIVED TANK COMMANDER VER. 1.2 PATCH
==============================================================================
Tank Commander Patch V1.1
-------------------------
This patch replaces V1.0. Users of faster PC's, Pentiums in particular, have
found a problem with serial/modem data loss, with the effect of the game
reporting that the two players are trying to play on different levels. This
patch remedies the problem, and also improves the frame rate of serial/modem
games.
In addition there was a slight problem with the Sat Screen on the original
CD. It seems that it was possible to inadvertantly click on DESPATCH without
having set a waypoint. This had the appearance of locking the machine, but
pressing the SPACE BAR regained control.

1- Program now allows SHARE.EXE to be running on system

GAME HINTS & TIPS:
1. At mission start, hit the F8 key to bring up the Satellite Map. In this
Map, use both the Helicopter Recon and the closeup view to chart a safe course
to your objectives.
2. Helicopters are you deadliest enemies. TAKE THEM OUT FIRST. To do this,
manuever within sight of the Helicopter, elevate the Main Gun to the MAXIMUN
and then select the ARMOR PIERCING shell and fire.
3. For unseen targets, use the Guided Missile (if you have them).
4. Use AirStrikes conservatively, use to take out buildings or Tank groups.
5. Flamethrowers are great for clearing terrain and taking out jeeps/trucks.
6. DO NOT run over or kill RED CROSS units/equipment or kill excessive sheep.
This could result in game termination.
7. PowerUps are rare, and look like red chests.
