| THE SACRED ARMOUR OF ANTIRIAD
(c) Palace Software STORY LINE "News is just coming in of the complete breakdown of the disarmament talks... between south and north sector delegations... and a total shutdown of diplomatic relations has been threatened. The situation is beginning to look bleak... the north sector has refused to abandon development of the controversial anti-radiation combat suit. They say evidence has been produced to show that southern scientists have been working on a similar project. North sector troops are mobilising iri border areas... but the Government has given assurances that there is no cause for alarm". THIS IS A WORLD ON THE BRINK OF COLLAPSE... EARTH 2086 It was already too late - the weapons of total destruction were mobilised, including the antirad combat suits secretly developed by both powers, they rendered the wearer completely invulnerable to attack by all known weapons and enhanced the battle skills of the operator to a fearsome degree. Retaliation was swift and deadly as they 'pushed the button'. AFTER... the ravaged planet was plunged into a nuclear winter. Centuries passed... and from the chaos emerged a new race, strong and hardy. The people came to know a simple and peaceful life. But, one day, out of the skies, an invasion force from another world! Terrified and bewildered villagers ran in disarray. The attack was swift and savage, their weapons were sophisticated and they showed no mercy. Filled with grief at so much death, the people fought back bravely... but it was not enough, all remaining ablebodied men were set to work mining the planet's valuable ore... while the tyrants ruled from their stronghold deep inside a dark volcano which loomed over the half buried remains of an ancient city. The elders plotted to overthrow the oppressors. They hid newborn male children and reared them in secret camps, teaching them ancient battle arts. As the young warriors grew... one stood out as a CHAMPION, his name TAL. "Tal! you have been chosen as the one who will save our race." You have now heard the legends of the sacred armour. Now is the time to bring it back from the dead. The Elders showed Tal an ancient blueprint, this sacred scroll told of the magic of the armour. You, Tal, must brave the horrors of the evil forest, find the sacred armour and use it to destroy the power centre of the tyrants. YOU ARE OUR ONLY HOPE!
