- HINT: SLAUGHTER those stupid Street People!
-
- Welcome to Yankees & Red Necks! This is a fantasy game filled with fastpaced
- hack & slash action, violence and instant death. This game has only one
- purpose : for your enjoyment It is possible for you to actually enter the game
- and go berzerk right away. However, you can continue reading and perhaps learn
- some tactics that can keep you alive for awhile.
-
- You will and have already selected your character. You may select to play under
- an alais and then select character types. ALL characters have different
- beginning values! Either selection you should always concentrate your efforts
- on the Butcher Shop. It's in this area that your fortune can be made, or your
- life end...There are over thirty-five levels stretching from the top of Yankee
- country to the heart of the south. Let it now be said that there are many a
- wild and insane man on the Streets. Some of you will never return! The legends
- say that the guardians of the Streets goes beyond everything your worst night-
- mare can bring forth. No one has ever reached beyond the 30th level, you could
- be the first.
-
- Be prepared though, dress well, visit the Armor shop and Weapon shop and carry
- the proper equipment.
-
- Converse with other players! They can be your best Friend.
-
- Completing the final challenge of the Streets of Yankees & Red Necks will
- reward you with immortalization in the chronicles. Your name will live forever.
-
- It is very important to note that while on the Streets, many strange humans
- lurk. Some may even approach you and offer different things. Your response will
- ultimately lead to either riches or to death. Be warned! Some treasures will
- need a certain ability to be reached. Some treasures may just be traps, waiting
- for some Red Neck stumble into.
-
- If you don't fancy strolling down the Streets, you can do other things.
- Why not visit the Camp Ground, where Red Necks and Yankees as well can camp
- over night. You can kick their camper and challenge them. Show 'em the REAL
- man(or woman) that you really are. Check into the Sports lounge.... Be care
- at those "Yard Sales" and the "lost Brief cases", they can get a bit tricky.
-
- There will always be opponents in this game, not just the humans you challenge
- on the Streets, but also computer controlled characters. These guys are not
- always nice. Some will try to "whip your butt" just for the hell of it! The
- Street people, on the other hand, are always there waiting for you.
-
- Becoming "thug of the day" is very rewarding! However there is one trick to
- reaping the benefits. In order to become "thug of the day" you must first have
- the most experience points over all players. Thats the first requirement. The
- last requirement is that you must be the FIRST player to logon that day to
- reap the "bennies". In other words if Joe Blow logs on with less Experience
- points than you, and you're the top dog, if he leaves the game with more
- points than you. Well, shame on ya!

- Upon the creation of a new player you will be given the opportunity to
- choose between two different races. This selection is vital to the type of game
- you will be involved in. First of all every race has different abilities
- according to strength and defense, but they also have different values when it
- comes to Charisma an so forth.
-
- First of all there is good and evil acts that can give you experience and
- money. They can of course give you pain and death to, but most important of
- all they will influence your character. Bad acts can cause you grief and weaken
- your character. Swinging either side over the limit will give you some
- unpredictable and sometimes fatal consequences. Some races can withstand good
- or evil better than others, and can therefore benefit longer.
-
- Yankees & Red Necks is not normal and isn't a restricted Fantasy game. It
- includes some modern features too. Ever heard of drugs? Well, here they are.
- There are many different types of drugs in this game. They all have two things
- in common though. Firstly, they send you into dreamland where you can recieve
- hallucinated experiences which adds to your earlier experience.
-
- Yankees & Red Necks also has a NICE bank which you can Deposit, withdrawal,
- Invest and even get a loan from. A bit different from OTHER games. And for
- Those REAL "rough types" you can attempt to rob the Bank and make off with
- some "loot". This will also prevent other callers from using the bank that
- day.
-
- The Armor Shop is also somewhat different and offers you a chance to "Destroy
- the Armor Shop" so that other callers are prevented from using it that day.
- The same is true of the Weapon Shop. The opportunity arises to "Fire Bomb"
- the Weapon Shop.
-
- It opportunity galore at the Sports Lounge for those long hard days on the
- Streets. How about a Cold beer or maybe a mixed drink. Perhaps then you'll
- feel like fighting. Or maybe you'll want to play some Black Jack or even
- visit the Under Ground.
-
- The Doctors Office provides a place of healing and even a chance to RIP OFF
- some drugs.
-
- Don't forget to stop by the Training Spa every once in a while.
-
- Butcher shop is there for those trying times. BLAST other callers from this
- area and fight those mean street people as well. This is the area that you can
- "GET EVEN" in!
-
- The Camp Ground is a great place for camping! You can even hire a guard to
- protect yourself from the mean and dangerous callers. Perhaps you are feeling
- a bit on the rough side and want to get even with someone that is hidden in
- the Camp Ground. This is also a fine place to do it! Fool the other players
- and leave the game thru the campground.
