Btw : I might Have forgotten some Keys :(
=============================================================================
Mouse : STRONGLY RECOMMENDED!!

        If enabled can reach anything by just clicking and/or dragging 
        (example speed button)...

        Use your mouse to lock the target, simply by clicking on the enemy
        then press SpaceBar to fire ...

=============================================================================
Hints : * To Reach your WAYPOINTS easily, follow the green arrow in your view
          display (activate tracking device (T) until it stands in the middle 
          then simply walk until a red message displays "Waypoint reached"

        * if you reach a waypoint, Scan for hostiles, and Put the other HERC
          in "Fire at will", he will do his Job....

        * If you have the message "Objective cannot be reached", simply give
          up coz it won't work going on... (press A or Q)

Don't Use QEMM, and read the readme.bat file concerning lock-ups, CD-Rom,...

The Speech packs adds some speech, but is not worth using an extra 8mb of
Hard drive space...
