                            A New Era In BBS Gaming

                               Promo-Pak Xtra #1


        Date: November 5th 1995

        Ok, your probably asking yourself by now "what the heck is
        `Dawn of the Hunted'?"  Well, it is the newest BBS door game
        out there.  Programmed professionally for the finest, most
        stable, sharp-looking, inter-BBS and multi-node door today.
        Yes, that's great, but what about the game?  Well, read on
        fellow reader.

                                                Grant Stancliff
                                                AKA "Eclipse"
                                                Lead Programmer


        The Story:


        Set in the turn of the 21st Century, you are thrust into the
        role of a battle-hardened bounty-hunter.  You have nowhere to
        sleep, no food to munch on, and no woman (or man for you women
        folk) at your side.  You are forced to hunt human prey to surv-
        ive.

        You will travel from the slums of Manhattan to the streets of
        Mali, North Africa.  With your trusty weapon of
        choice (and there's a lot of them!) you'll have to face the
        baddest of the bad: the criminals of the future.

        But, hey, it's not all dark and gloomy.  You can always rely
        on your wrist unit to update you on your current assignment or
        to give you hints on where to track the scum next!  You'll be
        able to fight in the Holo-Arena when you get bored of fighting
        the bad guys and perhaps a drink at the Cantina will lift your
        spirits.

        If tracking the bad guys isn't enough, you'll have to put up the
        the bureocratic orders of the Bounty Hunters Guild (BHG).  Hey,
        sometimes you don't want to go to Chile to track down that
        convicted felon...

        All in all, it's been a bad couple of years since the 'ol
        big-bash turn of the millenium, so it's up to YOU to clean up
        the garbage.

        Good-luck!  (You'll need it!)



        The Features:


        *Inter-BBS Play:

        Always two or more BBS's to combine their users to an all-out
        battle to bring the baddies to justice.  Maybe even your
        friend will get in the way, too bad: just take 'em out!

        *Multi-Node Capabilities:

        Allows two or more nodes to interact with message writing, real-
        time online battles and more!

        *VGA Local-Mode:

        Tired of the bright ANSI pallete?  Soften it up with this feature!

        *Easy Setup/Install:

        Do you ever just want to slam your fist into the moniter trying to
        figure out all the .BAT files, the .CFG files and error levels, what
        not?  Well not with Dawn of the Hunted (DOTH), it's as easy as
        tying your shoelaces.  (Which some of us still have problems with!)

        *Fresh Style:

        With an easy to understand menu-system, with Online-Help, you'll
        have no trouble just jumping in.  You'll be hunting down the bad-guys
        in no time.

        *User-Friendly Colors:

        Ever puke all over your keyboard from all the FuNkY TeXt and the
        BRIGHT colors (some of these guys gotta be color-blind) well, with
        DOTH you'll be without your Blue Blockers (TM) when hunting!

        *User Support:

        Friendly author who answers ALL email personally and doesn't forward
        it to someone else.  If you need an answer, you'll get it directly
        from the author himself!  :)

        *No Useless Files:

        What about those archives with all kinds of #$%@ files or embedded
        .ZIP files?  Yeah, they're annoying.  So with DOTH, it's short, it's
        simple and you don't need to delete all the worthless files.

        *Always A New Experiance:

        Because of random events, and an easy to use scripting language.
        The scripting language will consist of easy to use command, like
        GetKey, Spew, ect.
