You've probably heard of Scorched Earth or Scorched Tanks (the Amiga
conversion) - or maybe even Worms? If you like those games you'll love this;
it's the ultimate artillery tank game. Features include:
- Over 30 minutes of high-quality music to accompany the action; although if
you want you can have sound effects instead.

and import you own designs in almost any paint program. Comes with 50
demonstration levels.
- Or, the game can generate its own maps in any of six different terrain
styles.
- A large range of computer intelligence settings.
- Up to seven players.
- Training mode.
- 45 different weapons.
- Editable 'talk' files.
- Automatically saves configuration to disk.
- Smooth 50Hz update with parallax scrolling.
- Over 40 people have been involved in its development.
- Different levels have different wind strengths and times of day!
- Configurable gravity strengths, cash rewards, interest levels and starting
money.
- Toggle 'tunnelling' on and off.
- Extensive built-in instructions.
- Almost a year in continuous development.
Improvements since the previous version (v2.47):
- Now fully NTSC compatible
- Ability to buy defensive items before the match commences
- New 'auto-randomize' option for bitmap levels
- Crosshairs are now also shown on the map
Note: 2Mb Chip RAM, 1Mb Fast RAM and 6.2Mb hard disk space required.
Accelerated machine recommended.
