PANZER BATTLES (Amiga Version V1.2)

WARPAINT
________

Some of the icons in WarPaint could use further explanation. Reading from
right to left across the top row they are:

REAL ROADS
This tool creates real roads that units use for navigation, and on which
they pay road movement costs.

ERSATZ ROADS
This tool creates roads which look like roads on the map, and on which
units pay normal road movement costs. However, units will not treat these
as roads for navigational purposes. Use these to create roads which were
actually present on the battlefield, but which you do not want units using.
This is especially useful for roads which lead to the map edge.

HIDDEN ROADS
These are not really roads at all. Units pay the movement costs for the
underlying terrain, but will treat these as roads for navigational purposes.
This is very useful for leading units through difficult terrain, without
giving them a movement bonus.

ROAD MASK
The hexagonal shaped tool is the road mask. It will hide any visible road on
the map, and is used only for cosmetic purposes.

DISPLAY CHANGE
The orders dialog is slightly different to the example in the rulebook.
The divisional and regimental information is now contained in a new menu
item, "Division Report", under the "Display" menu.  This will show all
the info, such as leadership, admin, supply and so on, for the current
division and all of its regiments.  Regimental supply and casualties are
very important, so you should check this report often.

TERRAIN TYPES
Note for those familiar with IBM HOM
Terrain in the Amiga version operates differently from the IBM version;
in the Amiga version, each graphic hex picture has a terrain type allotted
to it, which is varied using the bottom slider.  This operates differently
from the IBM version.  Please consult the manual for further details.

VERSION NUMBER
The version number of your release may be found by accessing the "ABOUT"
menu item.

HARD DISK INSTALLATION

To run PANZER BATTLES from a hard disk, we recommend that you have
greater than 1 Meg of memory.

If you are attempting to run PANZER BATTLES on a 1 Meg machine
and are receiving out of memory messages, it is likely
you will have to remove some of your more memory consuming startup
programmes.

To do the installation, boot as usual and MOUNT your hard disk.
Insert the PANZER BATTLES disk and open it.
Click on the PZ_HDInstall Icon and follow the instructions.
Then start from the icon.

If hard disk space is at a premium, the only files absolutely necessary to
run the programme are as follows:

<root:>
	pz
	panzer
	panzer.info
	HOM.pic
	HOM.info
	fonts (directory - all files in directory - add to existing fonts)
	Sounds (directory - all files in directory)
	BATF_Pictures (directory - all files in directory)

   ______________________________________________________________________

AMIGA 3000/Workbench 2.x users

You may run the game directly from the supplied disk, or from your hard
disk using the install procedure above.
If you are running from your hard disk (using WB 2.x), you may run the
programme either from the Panzer icon OR the PZ icon (or indeed, by
by typing "pz" in the appropriate directory from the shell or CLI).
However, because Workbench 2.x automatically changes directories, etc.,
we strongly recommend you run from the PZ icon, rather than the Panzer
icon.  The programme on exit will that way leave 2.x happier.

KEYBOARD ENTRY

When entry data in, say, Warplan (TM), using the keyboard, please note
that the <RETURN> key and <DOWNARROW> key are treated slightly differently,
in that the <DOWNARROW> key polls the input whereas <RETURN> does not.
Thus, if you keep the <DOWNARROW> key pressed, it will have the effect of
repeatedly pressing the key.  It is generally faster to use the <RETURN>
key for data entry, and the <DOWNARROW> key for scanning information.

PAUSING GAME

Clicking outside any of the open windows will (when control is returned to
the user) pause the game;  The "marching ants" moving borders around units
and other cursors will stop moving, and the game is then paused.

NOTE

PANZER BATTLES' save game files are a little larger than their HALLS OF
MONTEZUMA equivalents, in that there is provision for 190 icons in Warpaint
(TM) instead of 150 icons.  HALLS OF MONTEZUMA save games are compatible
with and may be run by Panzer Battles, but PANZER BATTLES game files will
not run with HALLS OF MONTEZUMA.
