I used to have this game ages and ages ago on the amiga. Brings back a few memories. It's a good fun game overall, quite difficult though especially if you're new to it. Anyway, here's the help I can give:

I remember from the instruction manual I had, that doctor's experice is their ability to heal wounded people. At low experice they can only heal minor damage (75% plus or something) and at higher experice they can perform minor miracles.

Same goes for the technicians, I seem to recall that some things they can't build if they're experice is bad and/or they will be able to make better suggestions from items (e.g. he will tell you from wire that he can make a rat trap).

The gun is rubbish, as it's expensive and needs reloading. Best weapons start from dagger, then axe then pitchfork.

A lot of the items in the game are red herrings, things such as gold, tires and fuel are only good for bartering.

You have to try and block you enemies into a dead end by occupying the adjacent cities with some good troops. They won't be able to move past your cities. Then occupy the city they are in, and hey presto they won't be able to scavenge anymore food or water, and they'll soon die.

I recall people talking about building a car at the time from the bits, but as far as I can remember you can't.

Now this could be important - I have a vague memory that you can win the game without killing the other players. All you need to do is find the radio and repair it (it needs a battery and some screws I think). Then you will contact some other place where it's not all deserty and horrible and go and live happily ever after there.

The pumps just need to be left at the water source to work. They improve some places better than others.

If you find a radiated site, come back there alone when you have full health and be very quick to look around. They usually have some really good stuff there. You also don't die when you go inside the buildings. The raditation suit takes forever to build.

Always check each area for items on the floor, they look like little brown poos.

That's it for the moment. Please don't blame me if some of the info is wrong (it was about 10 years ago since I played it). Have fun
