oOo Release Notes oOo

The Space Race was a lie. In the late 1950's, a meteor show pummeled the
Bering   Straits.  In   the   debris, American   and  Soviet  scientists
simultaneously  discovered  an  off-world   bio-metal  that  they  could
fabricate  into amazing vehicles and weapons.  They quickly gathered  up
and depleted  all of the material  that had  fallen  to Earth, and  both
sides were left wanting more.

This began  the REAL Space Race... The one too brutal to televise.  They
launched their  space programs  in  their  efforts  to  find  additional
bio-metal deposits, and  it was the military  imperative that  made  the
space race  so intense -- not Kennedy's "for  the greater good  of man."
Neil  Armstrong's walk on the moon was actually the biggest  cover-up in
American  history.  Nobody knew that we'd built a full  moon base just a
few  feet away.  In  fact, it  was  General  Collins, commander  of  the
American moon base at Eagle's Nest One, who took the original picture of
Neil stepping  onto the moon.  It's  amazing that nobody  ever asked who
took that picture.  The NSA thought they'd made a real mistake when they
released it.

Now you are in  command! Lead your troops across the galaxy on a mission
to  control  the  alien  technology  before  the  Soviets do.  Only  one
super-power can survive in the Battlezone.

Features:

Full-Blown  3-D Warfare: Pilot  one of  20  anti-gravity  war  machines
equipped   with  weapons  of   destruction: mortars,  mines   and   the
devastating Thumper Device, which  launches a Richter-heavy groundquake
over the morphable terrain.

Full Strategic  Control: You are the  supreme commander of more than 30
unique  units, including  tanks, infantry  and  mobil  assault turrets.
Build bases, deploy forces, manage resources and build your empire, all
from the pilot's seat of your tank.

Realistic  First-Person  Combat  Action:  Ship  shot  down?  Bail  out,
parachute to  safety, then  use your sniper rifle  to take out an enemy
pilot and steal  the ship for sweet revenge.  Switch vehicles  right on
the battlefield of one of seven distinct moons or planets.

Revolutionary  Technology: The game  features  full D3D  support and  a
quick software rendering engine  which incorporates  actual images from
NASA space expeditions.

Multiplayer Melees: Pick  your poison: wage multiplayer  mayhem in full
Strategy Mode via LAN, modem  or Internet.  Or battle with up  to seven
others in Deathmatch Mode.

oOo WANTED oOo

Due to the overwhelming amount of feedback we  got about artists, we are
going  to try  this  again.  First,  we are looking  for people  who can
supply HARDWARE to our group.  Most  importantly 3DFX Cards, MMX  Chips,
and Hard Drives.  If you think you are able to help out, contact us ASAP
to be rewarded.  Second, we are looking for DEMO's (4k, 64k, even 4MB if
they are good enough)  with a CLASS theme.  The DEMO Scene and our Scene
used to be tightly knit.  Today, you are lucky if anyone  knows what the
DEMO  Scene is.  We would like to  change that, and give the  DEMO Scene
some much needed exposure, especially here  in the USA.  Lastly, we just
wanted to thank everyone for all  the positive feedback we have received
over the past few weeks.  It's nice to know our work is appreciated.  So
if  can help us  out in  any way, don't delay, contact  us today at  the
following E-Mail address: support@class101.com
