Sad to say, as far as I know, newsgroups can NOT be subscribed to.
I would be MORE than happy to hear that this is not true!
Your best bet is to go to the Data Processing Dept. at your local
site (or whoever takes care of your mainframe connection), and ask
that xxxx newsgroup be added to the list of groups available at
your site.  It is sadly true that many sites carry only a limited
number of the HUGE number of newsgroups potentially available.

GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Subject:      star trek - 25th anniversary: "Vengeance"

Regarding the "Vengeance" episode of Star Trek, Wayne Smith writes:

SPOILER AHEAD....






























        After many frustrating attempts, my son and I
finally figured out how to beat the 2 Elasi Ships and the
Enterprise-2.  Our tactic was, first of all, to change
ship speeds during the combat; in particular, when the Elasi
ships show up, it's important to go into "slow reverse" (use
the key just to the left of the "1" key).  If you get into
trouble, increase your speed and take evasive tactics until
Scotty can repair the shields.
        As far as the actual combat goes, first attack the
Elasi ship that shoots the three-photon-torpedo burst.  Stay
on him and blast away until the ship is defeated.  Then
attack the other Elasi ship.  Once both Elasi ships are
destroyed, it's only a matter of time until you wear down
the pseudo Enterprise.
        That's the end of the game!  I thought it was a
rather disappointing finish.  Unlike the other episodes,
which require a certain amount of ingenuity, "Vengeance" is
a straightforward arcade-style shoot-out.  Not consistent
with the rest of the game.

Close.  You are severely beaten by the bad alien, but the good alien puts
you on the back of a pteredactil and fly into the sunset.  The whole
idea of the story was to find a way out of that world back into your
own.  What is this?!?

Hmmm... the game did say when you lost, but it WOULD show how you bought it.

#Spear of Destiny Demo (soddemo.zip)
#COMMENT:  Wow!  Sneaking through those corridors is tough on the
#        old nerves.  Good game!

I can't help with your problem here - didn't find a locked door <grin>.  But,
did you try WOLF3D, I thought that was better and although the graphics weren't
as good, catabs12 or catabs13 had a number of additional options.  Different
spell types, more enemies, etc.  Well, have fun.

#Amazon (amdemo*.zip) not sure of its proper name
#I can't seem to get anywhere in this one.  I can poison the fish and
#get a breathing tube, but I still get shot before I can do ANYTHING.

This is a bit of a blatent hint, but as the guard paces the ship, wait
until he goes on the other side of the cabin.  Then swim to the ladder.
Timing is important (luck??) here and in a few other places in the demo.

#COMMENT:  Interesting premise (40's style movie serial) but the
#        interface is awful (haven't the designers EVER looked at
#        other games?)

I thought the interface was good (almost bought the game, and never buy
adventure games), especially the variable degree of help.  I did have
problems trying to mix different items in my inventory - didn't think
that was real friendly - knowing when to click, when to drag, etc.  Later,
                                                               :\/\/\/:

Help! :)

  -- Chaos Strikes Back.

  Problem: I need to close the pit, allowing me access to the 2nd half
  of the ROS path.

  Stragety: I went back to NETA path, and I froze a skeleton, pushed the
button, and the skeleton was transported to the other side.

  How do I kill the skeleton?

  1) I can't use posion cloud - no effect.
  2) Fireballs and lighting bolts are deflected by the gate.  Even tried
     pushing the button, then casting the fireball, hoping it'd transport
     the spell to the other end. NOpe.
  3) Some of my arrows can go through but I dont think this is the case.


 Any ideas?  Suggestions?

        Underworld II was due out last december; Software Etc. is
expecting it any day.  My guess is that it will be available on CD-ROM
some time in the future; it was not available for pre-ordering as of
december.

        A breif plot summery: 12 months after the destruction of the Black
Gate, Lord Brittish throws a feast for the heros of the land.  The
Guardian encases LB's castle in a giant Blackrock Gem.  The Guardian
offers the imprisoned heros a choice: proclaim him master of Brittania or
starve while the Guardian's minions conquer Brittanina.  Time and food are
running out, and someone is murdering the heros one by one.

Features:
        Larger bitmapped graphics, more frames of animation, eight worlds


        I'll give updates as I find out more about it.

HEELP

I'm totally stuck in this fabulous game . I sense I'm real close to
the end , but I don't have any clue of where to go to now .
This is what I did up to now :
I worked all my way through the house into the cellars . I killed all
the monsters except for these : the one in the bathroom , the ghost in
the chair , the spiders and the rats . I worked my way through the cel
lars to the cave with the tree (the one which throws the fireballs at
you) in it . Here, I used the amulet and took the hook . Now this is
where my problems start : the hook can open two doors, but these just
lead me back to rooms I already visited . I can't find any more passa-
ges or items . There's only one item which hasn't been useful to me up
to now and that's the iron bar I found in the room with the ghost sit-
ting in the chair . What should I do next ? I still can't get out
through the front door so I guess I'll have to find another way out ,
but where ? In the cellars there's only one monster I didn't manage to
kill and that's the worm . I can destroy the beast in the water but it
keeps on coming back .
Except for this there isn't much I can say about my current situation.
If anybody has any idea about what I may have missed or what I should
do , please respond cause I'm getting desperate .

  Uh, actually, you don't even NEED to do this...just hold down the left CTRL,
left Shift, and F1 simutaneously when the screen flashes from the OS/2
screen to your specified desktop color, and it will ignore this automatic
startup.  This is specified (read "hidden quite nicely") in the README
file OS/2 puts in the root directory.
  Which leads me to one of my main gripes...The hard copy docs that OS/2
supplies is close to nonexistent.  Even the Windows docs are more informative
than these.  Just out of curiosity, where did you find the SET STARTUP=...
line?  Were you forced to go out and look for it on your own?  Hmmm?
  Not necessarily directed to you:  correct me if I'm wrong, but the
Windows 3.1 compatibility offered in the service pack is not a true
kernal upgrade, but instead a PATCH, that has to go out and correct the
interrupts the kernal signals?
  When I mentioned lack of software for OS/2 I was referring to commercial
software.  If someone wants to mention shareware, I should point out that
there is at least three times the amount of shareware for Windows.  Granted,
this may be due to the fact that Windows has been around much longer than
OS/2, and the proportion of monster computers that OS/2 can comfortably
run on vs. ordinary Windows compatible computers in circulation.
  Again, I need to say that a person should get the GUI that fills their
needs, not just what other people like.  OS/2 has too many silly things in
it for my taste, but others disagree.  Such is life...

Like it or not, OS/2 is breathing very hard trying to catch up to the
established Windows userbase (Hee Hee)...


                               Okay, I'll shut up now...

                               Good Ol' Dave
