About this product

Product Information

CONDITION RED! Terrorists have seized a missile silo complex and are threatening to destroy Washington D.C.! These malevolent miscreants have wired the missiles to a silo computer and started the launch sequence timer. Unless your reflexes and tank driving skills are exceptionally sharp, the missiles will take off for Washington. To avert catastrophe, you must destroy all the silos in the complex before the timer reaches zero.

If the timer begins running out before you have accomplished your mission, you still have a chance to prevent what could be World War III. Prior to impact, you can dock your supertank at a silo, enter a War Room, and enter a code that might disarm the missiles. The code each time is a randomly chosen combination of the letters L, E and O. If your guess is wrong, it's goodbye capital.

The tank you pilot moves on a scrolling playfield and is equipped with a long-range turret gun that rotates 360 degrees. The turret moves independently of the body of the tank. When out in the open, the tank can cruise at fast speed, but it moves slower through fields and slower still through woods and towns. You will run low on fuel from time to time, but you can refuel at supply depots that dot the field of play. You can also pick up fail-safe code clues at some of the supply depots.

As you go about your silo-destroying business, tanks, jeeps and cruise missiles will try to detract you from your mission and destroy your tank. Shoot them or try to avoid their fire. Also, pillboxes, which are little arrows that rotate and fire in your direction, guard the silos and supply depots. You can knock them out of commission for extra points.

If you are successful in destroying all the silos or entering the proper code, you will earn 10,000 points, an extra life, and a Congressional Medal of Honor. Good luck! The safety of our great nation is in your capable hands!
