Dear Player,

This is the revised version of my Manual For Tradewar Players.  It will
correct many misconceptions, and hopefully get you thinking on better
ways to play the game.  In it, I have given out many of my tricks, in
the hope that it will produce a crop of better players and give me some
good competition...and maybe even keep me awake at night, like back in
the old days..heh!


There are several files included here:


SOMEGUY.TW
----------
This is my work.  It includes most of what I know about the game, and
often contradicts what most players feel is correct.  Therefore, I've
included lengthy explanations on most every topic I could think of.
It's intended to be printed out to your printer directly using the DOS
command:   TYPE SOMEGUY.TW > PRN
Page breaks are imbedded in the text, so it should print out nicely.
It does come to about 50 pages now.


TWINSTR.DOC
-----------
This is a copy of the basic player instructions included inside the game
itself, and it goes step by step, thru all the menu options and
features.  Be sure to read thru it at least once, to re-familiarize
yourself and see what you just might have missed.
