1. STORY

        "Your object is not to die for your country...
                it's to make the other poor bastard die for his!"
                                     -General Patton

  Welcome to Hong Pong, a world where you are forced to defend your
land in battle.  Your only ally in the world... your tank. Achieve victory 
in up to five war zones.  May the best man laugh at the charred ashes of
his opponent!!
    

2. CONTROLS/GAMEPLAY

   Default controls are as follows

		Player One		Player Two

Tank up:	UP ARROW		LETTER "A"
Tank down:	DOWN ARROW		LETTER "Z"
Shield:         RIGHT ARROW             SPACE BAR
Missle:         RIGHT CTRL              LEFT ALT

   Basic gameplay consists primarily of blocking the spinning nuke 
from touching your side of the arena using your tank.  This must be done
while you simultaneously try to destroy your enemy using missles or hitting
his side with the nuke.  Missles can also be used to redirect the nuke.

   If you are hit with a missle or the nuke touches your side your health 
will drop accordingly.  Beware also of passing vehicles, as they will harm
you if they touched. If you shoot land vehicles before they crash into you,
your life meter will raise accordingly. Your tanks health and shield strength
are diplayed as a percent in the top corresponding corner.  Use shields to
defend against missles, but beware you cannot fire back with your sheilds up.
When a player's health reaches 0 he loses the match.  Good luck.
