Game Notes:
In 843 AD the first Scottish King Kenneth McAlpin unites the Pict and Scot
empires to become the Kingdom of Alba.
400 years later Edward I, also known as the Hammer of the Scots engulfed
the land in a great feud. It was not long before Edward I controlled most
of Scotland. The Scots, led by William Wallace and Robert the Bruce, are left
to fight what seems to be a futile war for freedom. This is the time when
legends are born
Game Features:
* RTS - there's no catch!
The use of the very latest techniques and hardware makes Highland Warriors
one of the most state-of-the-art and technically sophisticated real-time
strategy games available on the market!
* The ATLAS engine also allows for the characters/units in the game to consist
of up to 8,000 and the buildings of up to 1,700 polygons. At the same time
the very authentic 3D environment remains freely rotatable and fully zoomable.
* The change of seasons during the course of a mission opens up entirely new
strategical means never experienced before! For example, crossing a mountain
range during wintertime can take a great deal of effort and cause substantial
delays. Some ridges might even be impassable making it difficult if not impossible
to keep the supply lines open or to build a bridgehead on hostile territory.
And since farming yields normally drop to zero in winter the population will
have to find other sources of food
* The 30 immersive single player missions are portioned out to four nations,
each one of them calling for a brand new strategy! How about conquering rival
nations and joining the English in penetrating new territory? No, you'd rather
support the Scots in their fight for freedom and independence? Or are you even
tempted by treacherous intentions?
* Get the ultimate multiplayer kick!
Highland Warriors features multiplayer support for up to 8 players over LAN
or Internet (Gamespy). Simply join in and let the games begin.
* Authentic dialect features!
Don't worry, though: Your speakers won't boom from gibberish. Your units will
speak out loud and clear in a perfectly understandable manner. Also, enjoy the
orotund soundtrack recorded in studio quality! No doubt this should get you the
real Highland feeling!
* Loads of real-time movies!
About 80 movie sequences will sweeten your victories and relieve you from the
pain of a defeat. Apart from a lavishly produced intro exhilarating in game films
will set on the exciting story.
* An epic story brings many historical folk heroes from the time around 850 until
1315 AD on your screen - joined in of course by important figures like William
Wallace (well known from the movie Braveheart) or Robert the Bruce, who wasn't
just as popular as his predecessor Wallace, but still put the fear of God into
the Englishmen.
* Encounter intelligent adversaries!
The AI is based on a highly developed expert system and won't make things easy
even for experienced players. Play at a difficulty level of your choice to face an
equal opponent.

1) Unrar with WinRAR.
2) Burn the .cue and .bin with CDRWin or Fireburner.

DEViANCE Application Information
You think you can contribute to the scene too? You have one or more
talents in:
- supplying NEW unreleased GAMES (maybe you work at a game/util
magazine, courier delivery firm, newspaper, game press/marketing
company, distributor, publisher, duplicator, tv/radio show, shop,
warehouse, design firm, language translation company, packing company
store etc). You don't need a fast internet connection for the above!
- supplying NEW unreleased store/shop games BEFORE, yes that's BEFORE
the store release date & have a fast UPLOAD 300k+ internet connection
and time to spare on weekday mornings. We are NOT interested in modem,
cable, or DSL links as they can be capped at anytime! Proper
internet connections are needed! Of course we shall reimburse you
for the costs of the games you buy. As we buy our games!
- you are experienced in removing executable protection systems
(such as ASProtect, ASPack, Armadillo, tELock, NeoLite etc.)
and you are willing to help defeating the latest versions of
commercial iso copying protection systems like Safedisc 2+ or
Securom or Tages or VOB or StarForce or Laserlok. You must be
able to code in assembly language.
- you are a coder with lots of experience in Debugging/ASM & C/C++.
You also can code your OWN tools to automatically remove
commercial iso protections like the latest versions of any of the
following: SafeDisc or Securom or TAGES or VOB or Laserlok or
StarForce. Using tools created by others does NOT count and we
check! You will also need advanced knowledge of import tables
setting breakpoints with/and PE File Formats.
- are you able to write YOUR OWN source code to unpack & repack
game related major file format types such as MPQ, MIX & WAD?
And can you also identify most major big-file formats(files
that contain more files) by looking at the hex byte code of
the header for that file? Do you know what reindexing is in
regards to game .exe's and can you do it? And can you turn
your OWN source code written in ASM/C/C++ for the above tasks
into executable group tools? And do you also have 50K downlink
for downloading new game formats to write tools for? You must
send example code of your work with sources on major file
formats for depacking/repacking. Existing/stolen source will
not be allowed!
- making trainers for newly released games, menu driven, must work
in Win9x and Win2K/WinXP. Also you must be on a 50k downlink at
least. And you have time during the week to do trainers.
Also you understand DMA & ASM debugging techniques and use them
to find your trainer codes. This is needed to make sure your
trainers will work on all operating systems!
If you can meet one or more of those requirements and want to join
the finest active group in the scene today, e-mail us.

And always remember: we do this just for FUN. We are against any
profit or commercialisation of piracy. We do not spread any release,

money, as we love game originals. Nothing beats a quality original.
And if you like this game, BUY it. We did!
