GAMEPLAY

After the Solar Explosion on Earth, the few
who escaped travelled round the Universe in a
NewArk and then returned to their home
planet, but only to find that it was inhabited
by the Cat Men.

To regain their lost homeworld the Humans
first launched a frontal attack on Earth. They
lost not only the battle but all attack fighters.
They then sent a small scale attack force with
Hercules 1 and M.T.-E.D. as mission personnel
and it was their mission to destroy the main
battle computer of the Cat Men. Hercules 1
however was captured which leaves M.T.-E.D.
alone and his mission now is to rescue Hercules
1 and disable the battle computer.

M.T.-E.D.
Multi Terrain Exploration Droid.

Control of the M.T.-E.D. is via a remote
operator whose range of control will be left/
right, jump, duck, fire, whatever is loaded into
weapons unit (a press of the fire key with a
direction key held down as well) and fire the
grenades (a press of the fire key only).

Once the defences of the Cat Men have been
penetrated and the battle computer reached,
M.T.-E.D. will find the Deathgrid, a device
set up to protect the computer. Deactivating
it can only be done by shorting the pulses of
electrical energy moving around the grid. To
do this he must position a remote device on
the top of the grid (controlled by left/right)
and select a switch on the left of the grid with
M.T.-E.D. (controlled by up/down). Two
bursts of anti-matter will then be released (by
pressing fire) into the grid. If, where these
meet, there is an electrical pulse it will be
destroyed. Fifteen of these pulses must be
destroyed within a minute or M.T.-E.D. will
fail in his mission. If he completes this task
the battle computer will be destroyed and he
must make his way back to the ship with
Hercules 1 to escape.
