THE GAME -
The aim is to make gunpowder in order to blow up the Great Wall of China and then conquer Peking. In Baghdad there is a great magician and alchemist who will reveal the five components of the formula for gunpowder. Depending on the time of the year and the position of the stars, the components will vary each time you start the game You have to conquer the five territories where the components are found and then head towards Peking.

HOW TO PLAY -
On the game menu you must select the options in order to develop your campaign. Genghis Khan's army is indicated by a red flag and you can only operate from the territory where Khan is located. You will have to displace Khan to any other territory you want to operate in. The 'invade territory" and "send spy" options are only possible against bordering territories under enemy rule. ARROWS: This option allows your archers to shoot enough arrows to eliminate all the enemies on screen, but every time you do this the number of archers will decrease. BATTLE: To win a battle the enemy must surrender, which will happen if they are highly outnumbered. Or if you reach and eliminate the "guardian dragon" of the enemy you also win the battle. You can redistribute your army after conquering a new territory. RETREAT: To do this Genghis Khan has to leave the screen to the left If you use "strategy" only you can retreat by pressing any of the control keys during the battle.

TIPS -
Too many soldiers in your army will reduce sanitary conditions and produce a mortal epidemic. You have to control your territories, as the inhabitants will rebel against an oppressive army or a weak one. To check how numerous any of your armies are, place the cursor above the symbol for the territory and press fire. PC users who have programs installed in their computers may have difficulty playing If you eliminate those programs this problem will be avoided.
