DESCRIPTION

A game of the Gauntlet genre. Set in a German Castle, you are an

English soldier, set to rescue 3 prisoners held there.



<From back Sleeve>

You were briefed at eleven.  They told you you're the best.  You

handle the worst jobs, the delicate jobs - the messy jobs no-one

else will risk taking.  That's why you're here.  Your mission -

to infiltrate and destroy the stronghold of a top enemy commander

which serves as temporary barracks and armoury for the divisions

under him - to rescue three fellow saboteurs held prisoner in the

bowels of the fortress - to steal back as many antiquities as

possible from the commander's private collection. So you're the

best.  Prove it.



CONTROLS:

Kempston, Sinclair or Cursor Joysticks

Keyboard:          - Fully Redefinable



INSTRUCTIONS

Brief:

Six key German divisions are in your area - the main force is

believed to be quartered in the fortress codenamed "Eagle's

Nest". Three saboteurs sent to destroy the Eagle's Nest have been

captured. The third managed to set up a network of explosives at

key points throughout the fortress, but was captured before they

could be detonated. It is up to you to rescue them and destroy

the Eagle's Nest...



Objectives:

Infiltrate the fortress and rescue the three captives before they

break under torture.  It is your aim to cause maximum havoc and

confusion before finding and detonating the hidden explosive on

all eight floors.  Whilst doing so it is in your interests to

recover as many art treasures and jewels as possible from the

commander's private collection.
