Panzadrome: The Silicon Wars Part IV | Ariolasoft (Ramjam) | 1985 | fuel tank tanks | The eponymous Panzadrome is an island inhabited solely by robot tanks of varying viciousness. You have been given the task of destroying all the robots on the Panzadrome... Each robot tank is remotely controlled from a central computer, from which it gets its power. Plasma vents are a central part of the power grid, and they have to be destroyed in order to knock out both the computer and tanks. The computer is well aware of this weakness, though, and wherever you find a vent there is also a strong guardian force as well. Apart from the tanks you also have to cope with heavily armed fun emplacements which fire on any intruders. Due to budget restrictions, you have been given a very sub-standard tank with a one-shot turret and stone wheels! Fortunately, factory depots are scattered around the island, each specialising in a different type of tank component. You can visit these factories and collect whatever system a factory makes. Though the robot part stores are unaware that you are an intruder, the computer's tanks will recognise you immediately and try to destroy you. Three weapons systems are available to you, although at the start you only have the worst - a on-shot turret. The others are mortars and mines, both of which must be collected from the appropriate factory. A Polycrete (TM) module is almost vital to have. Although you can avoid the enemy tank fire if you are quick enough, their (and your) exploding shells leave impassable craters in the ground. This means that it can be quite easy to get stuck between a pair of impassable craters. The solution is to use Polycrete (TM) - press P to squirt it into the crater to fill the hole. The Panzadrome itself is a 64-screen island, each screen flicking to the next when the edge boundary is reached. A scanner helps you navigate by highlighting the screen you are currently on. A short-range scanner is also shown, displaying the tanks (which you can see) and the mines (which you can't). As well as this, the status screen shows the state of repair of any equipment you may have; if something is too badly damaged you will lose it. You only have one life, and if your shields run out a direct hit on your tank will destroy it. Status bars depict shield level and other counters show the amount of ammunition.*** [6]*** [4]*** [10]*** [48]*** [8] | labelimagesubject |

Vindicators | Domark (Consult Software) | 1989 | 26thcentury dualtone lives score scrollingshooter spc-128k-enhanced tank tanks | Date: Year 2525 ... Battlefield: Outside Galaxy TR15... Mission: Intercept and destroy an alien space fleet threatening to conquer Earth ... Weapon: SR-88 Strategic Battle Tank... Codename: VINDICATORS An armada of fourteen alien space stations approach Earth. The only way to destroy this invading force is to infiltrate the enemy with your SR-88 Strategic Battle Tanks, better known as Vindicators. Vindicators - the faithful conversion of the Coin-Op arcade hit - challenges you to negotiate each space station's heavily guarded corridors, and locate and destroy its control room. Replenish your tank's fuel supply with fuel canisters located throughout the many levels of each station. Special features enable your tank to gain enhanced speed, shot range, shot power, force field or even "Smart Shots." This dangerous assignment will require all your battle-honed skills. Win and the world cheers with you. Lose and kiss it goodbye.*** [28]*** [42]*** [147]*** [28]*** [42]*** [6]*** [1]*** [52] | labelimagesubject |
