HATE (HOSTILE ALL-TERRAIN ENCOUNTER) SCENARIO The year is 2320 AD and the Galaxy is in turmoil. With the alien threat ever increasing, the lack of experienced assault personnel is severely undermining the defences of civilised sectors. You are needed to repel the hostile alien forces - but you have to qualify first. Prepare to go to Stripworld - the training ground for all Galactic Fighter Pilots! Initially controlling a Star Fighter, PLASMA CELLS lining the route must be collected and taken through the barrier. Upon completion of this level you will take the controls of the ground assault vehicle. Manoeuvre the GAV to the next barrier, again collection Plasma Cells to power the waiting Star Fighter. This will continue until you can advance no further. To test you to the limit, alien defences line the way and must be overcome. Ground skimming projectiles, intelligent missiles, enemy star fighters, mine barriers and many more obstacles will challenge even the most advanced Fighter Pilot. GAME PLAY You begin with four lives. Each time your craft is destroyed a life is lost. Extra lives are gained by collecting the PLASMA CELLS (the remains of the nuclear generators). If your craft s hit whilst carrying one or more cells one cell will be destroyed whilst saving you from destruction. The number of Plasma Cells carried through determines the number of lives for the next level.
