Battle Cars is a one or two player game played inside an arena, with each player being equipped with an armour plated car and a big gun (an M61 20mm cannon). You start off with 4000 rounds of ammunition which lasts for about 40 seconds of continuous firing, but is more than adequate for the task in hand. The aim of the game is simple - destroy all of the armour on any side of your opponent's car. The cars are armoured on the front, back, left and right; hitting anywhere else on your opponent's car (e.g. the wheels) won't do any damage. There are two buildings in the arena to make driving more fun, although crashing into them (or into the walls) doesn't damage your car. Before playing the game, you will have to select your TV type (NTSC or PAL). Choose NTSC if you have an american amiga, otherwise choose PAL.
