**********
WELCOME TO  THE WORLD OF BATTLETECH!
	the year is 3028--the 4th succession war has begun.  It's a war that  
will be decided by BattleMechs--30' tall human-shaped fighting tanks.
	You can affect the outcome oas the commander of a BattleMech...the  
ultimate machine of destruction.
	You have at your command the most powerful, most sophisticated combat  
technology of the 31st century.  From the cockpit of your BattleMech, you have  
mor fire power than an entire battalion of 20th century tanks.
	
EXPLORE A VIRTUAL WORLD
	On the video screen you see what you would actually see on the  
battlefield.  You can explore 100 square miles of alien terrain complete with  
canyons, obstacles, changing weather patterns, friendly BattleMechs and, of  
course, enemy BattleMechs.  All created by the computer, but controlled by you.
	The BattleTech Center  uses the same kind of simulator technology that  
has only been available to NASA and the military.  The BattleTech Center is the  
first commercial entertainment use of Virtual Reality technology.  Explore  
another dimension today.

LAUNCH INTO ACTION
	Before you take command, you'll spend a few minutes in the *Ready  
Area*.  Here you'll get a brief exlanation of your cockpit's operation.  The  
data base computer tells you about your BattleMech, the environment, and the  
mission.  It's always exciting because the mission and terrain change with  
every game you play.
	The *Observation Platform* is the wardroom of a giant starship filled  
with TV monitors, some broadcasting news of the 31st century and others  
monitoring the action of each BattleMech.  The non-playing members of your  
group can follow the action in each cockpit from the platform.

THE ENEMY IS HUMAN
	BattleTech pits teams of players against *each other*.  You have over  
100 miles of computer generated terrain to explore.  What you see on your  
screen is the exact movement of other BattleTech commanders like yourself.
	No two games will ever be the same because each battle pits
		human against human,
		mind against mind
		strategy against strategy.

TAKE COMMAND OF YOUR BATTLEMECH
	Your BattleMech is ready to fight.  This huge, humanoid fighting  
machine with its arsenal of high-tech weapons is the ultimate machine: 100 tons  
of walking, hulking armored destruction.
	You get your own view of the extraterrestrial landscape outside the  
cockpit via a 25" color monitor.  The action you view changes constantly as you  
maneuver your BattleMech.  A secondary screen is used for radar tracking and  
vehicle damage display.  You manipulate your BattleMech with an array of  
controls, displays and firing mechanisms that send high energy laser beams at  
the enemy.
	Join the world's first "Virtual Reality" interactive comuter simulation  
experience.  feel the intensity and adrenaline flow as you command your  
BattleMech to save the Universe!
