ZONE 6
2394CE, Marz, Cydonia region, Zone 6.
You are a volunteer member of the Cyberneticly Augmented Special Forces Unit serving the Legislative Council of Marz.
You have cybernetic enhancements and multiple weapons.
Your job is to provide the only real offensive action against the murderous Electro Mechanical Lifefroms (EMLs) of Luñar in the War Against Genocide.
You and the others awake to the sound of the alarm. You throw yourself out of your bunk and head for your equipment. It’s another EML attack, the second this month. You hope it is Androdic this time and not Robotic, the Robot EMLs are so brutal. When Robotic EMLs attack it’s a smash & grab free-for-all, and they make it a point to kill all biological lifeforms, so speed in arriving there is paramount.
Now with your equipment you load into a military ATV with the rest of your unit you head off. You are wondering, “Where to now?” when you realize that your CO is already barking orders and listen up. Did he just say you were all getting RFIDblues for Zone 6?
Try as you might you cannot concentrate on you CO as your mind runs wild. Zone 6?!? That’s where all of the cutting edge experiments are done on Marz! All kinds of crazy experiments are rumored to take place in Cydonia. And that face… Only top level government officials and scientists are allowed there, no wonder you’re getting RFIDblues.
You start to listen to your CO again, he is done passing out the RFIDblues and seems to have more details…

(Kadesh 1294 B.C. Ramses II of Egypt (1299-1224 BC) made several attempts to conquer Syria. In one of these he was surprised near the city of Kadesh by an army of about 20,000 Hittites under King Metella (1306-1282 BC). The Egyptian army, also of about 20,000 men, was strung out considerably, and the two leading divisions were hard pressed when, primarily as a result of good luck, some additional Egyptian troops came up and some Syrian allied troops as well. The battle ended in a draw, but Ramses managed to convince Egypt that he’d won a smashing victory and put up monuments telling of his heroic deeds. This is one of the very few battles for which we have any information and the scenario more or less follows what we know rather closely.
Armageddon is a simulation of the art of warfare from the earliest organized armies (c.3000BC) to the time that marching in step was introduced (c.600 BC). The game presents the tactics and possible results of many of the battles of this period.

2 Players
You are a mighty Time-Lord, and your powerful army of Guardians, Rangers, and Warriors stands ready to do battle. Your opponent is equally strong, and knows that only one of you will survive this conflict of time and space; for you both are Time-Lords, able to alter the fabric of reality, and there is room in the universe for only one with such power…
4th Dimension is a classic game of pure strategy- no luck or dice are involved. A unique feature of the game is the ability to “Time-Warp” a piece- removing it from the board- and bringing it back into play in a different location! Players must take care not to allow their Time-Lords to be trapped by opposing Warriors beaming down from Time-Warp…
