& The Fish Sub &
Fish Sub is a game of hide and seek, the enemy hides and
you seek. The game is made up of 122 sectors with an
enemy sub, 3 enemy decoys, 20 enemy mines, and a subchaser.
The player is the subchaser and it's job is to sink the
enemy Fish Sub without running out of fuel. One hit can
sink either side. To fire a depth charge, select the
coordinates 0 thru 10.
Mines are tricky, they can explode on you or near
you, taking points from you. If you find the decoy
submarine, this will give you 600 points. Finding
two decoy submarines will give a bonus of 3 extra turns.
Destroying the Fish Sub will give you 1000 points.
Losing the game will take a 1000 points from you.
The Fish Sub will detect your movements and will take turns
or points from you if it attacks you. Fish Sub also will
move toward or away from you on its horizontal plane.
The Subchaser has on board a scanner that readsout compass
directions of where the Fish Sub may be. North and South
are not exact, but your East and West is right on. For
example, the scanner may readout Fish Sub is North of you,
this is anywhere North of you. The scanner may readout
Fish Sub is West of you, your right on, stay on this
horizontal. The scanner will detect the fish sub decoy(s)
when within one sector of you by a 360 degree pattern.
The scanner can malfunction at times and will take a couple
turns to repair it.
Player will start with 15 turns. Getting your name listed
on the score bulletin is easy if you have enough fuel
before destroying the Fish Sub. Turns = Fuel, Points = Speed.
When a player is one of the Top Ten Players on the score
board, a different menu will show giving that player access
to many more features.
One feature is entering his or her own Fish Sub coordinates.
The player's information will be deleted if the fish sub is
found by another player.
When another player plays a player and did not find the Fish
Sub at the end of the game, the target player will receive
1000 points for not losing his or her fish sub.
Destroying the Fish Sub will cause the target player to
receive -1000 points and will delete his or her old coordinates.
New coordinates must be reinstalled by the player(s).
You can view the daily newspaper which keeps track of the
events, player against player. Playing against the computer
will not be recorded.
Good luck and good hunting!
