======================================================
WAR - V 1.2 for the Psion Series 5 & 5mx & compatibles
======================================================
An Arcade / Strategy game - A cross between 'Command & Conquor' and 'Worms',
Use Infantry, Artillery, Tanks, Mega Tanks, and Air Strikes to wage war against
your Series 5 or a friend, you can even ask the Martians for help if you think
you can trust them.
With high quality smooth scrolling graphics, speech, and sound effects.
A game you will want to play again and again.
The latest versions of all my programs can be downloaded & registered via my web site.

============
INSTALLATION
============
Turn on your Series 5, press the System icon (bottom left of the
screen), press the Menu key, under 'Tools' select 'Preferences',
make sure that there is a tick next to 'show system folder' and click
on 'OK'.
Go into either C:\System\Apps\ or D:\System\Apps\
From the menu, under 'File' select 'Make new folder' name it WAR.
Copy all the files except README.TXT into this directory.
Pressing the 'Extras' button (bottom right of screen) will now reveal
this programs icon, select it to begin.
If the program does not run, rename it's folder to a different name, wait
a few seconds, then rename it back to the correct name and try again.
If you have difficulty with installation, re-read and follow carefully
the above instructions, you have probably put the files in the wrong place,
or named the folder incorectly. See the troubleshooting section below.
=================================
UPGRADING FROM AN EARLIER VERSION
=================================
Follow the installation instructions above, overwriting your existing files.
===========
HOW TO PLAY
===========
A complete guide is included in the program.
============
REGISTRATION
============
Full instructions on how to register and details of cost are given within the
program, just select 'How to register' from the menu.
When you register you will receive a code that will enable this program to be
used with your Series 5. If for any reason a replacment code is required, one
will be supplied free of charge. If you require yet another code a new
registration will be required, whereupon you will recieve a new code,
and will again be entitled to a free replacement code if needed.
The above policy is necessary to minimise piracy, and to keep the amount of
time spent dealing with each registration to an acceptable level, which in turn,
enables me to keep the cost of registration low.
I hope that with your support I will be able to continue making software for
your enjoyment.
===============
TROUBLESHOOTING
===============
If you have a problem, check that your batteries are not low, and that there is
plenty of memory available to the program.
Check that you have followed the installation instructions correctly.
Try renaming the folder the program is in to a different name, wait 5 seconds and
then rename it back to the correct name.
Check my web site to see if you are using the latest version of this program.

If you still have a problem after checking the above, send me an email, explaining
the problem in as much detail as possible, stateing what machine you are running
the program on, what version you are running, what files have been put where, at
what point in the programs execution the error happened, and what error messages
were given.
The more detailed the information you give me, the more likely it is that I will
be able to help you.

FINAL COMMENT
=============
I hope that you will encorage me to write lots of new programs by registering.
I am currently programing full time for the Psion range of computers, and can
only continue with your support.
Many thanks,
Ben Vaughan.
