- performance of Battle Wrath. If you encounter difficulties using
- Battle Wrath, disable any such devices to be sure that they are not
- affecting perfomance.
-
- VESA SVGA:
- This game works only with computers that conform to the VESA SVGA

- driver supplied by your graphics card manufacturer.
-
- These TSRs are available free of charge on most BBSs, including
- Compuserve, America On Line, Genie, Internet, and a host of others.
- In addition, the dealer that sold you the hardware should have
- access to the drivers. Should you not have access to these sources,

- PG MODE (C):
- PG Mode is a method of scaling down the violence in Battle Wrath.
- When PG Mode is off, the game shows full gore - Heads and limbs can
- be severed and blood will flow. With PG Mode on, no severs can take
- place and blood is replaced with 'hit' stars.
-
- Cerebral Gaming Systems recognizes that the level of violence in
- Battle Wrath may detract from the enjoyment of the game for some
- people. When the game is first installed a password can be entered
- to prevent underage players from misusing the game. If you downloaded
- this game from a bulletin board, the password would be the ENTER key.
- To change the password at any time, simply type "PASSWORD" while in
- the Battle Wrath directory.
-
- Whenever a player attempts to turn PG Mode off, the game prompts the
- user for the password. If the entered value is not correct the game
- remains in PG Mode - heads and arms remain firmly attached and no
- blood flows.
-
- DO NOT FORGET YOUR PASSWORD! Cerebral Gaming Systems can NOT retrieve
- this password for you should you lose or forget it. Write it down
- somewhere safe.
