3The outcome of the war lies in your hands. You decide which units are
4sent to the front lines, and when to unleash the reserves. Your mission
5objectives range from defending strategically vital locations to simply
6destroying all enemy forces in the area. Protect supply convoys or raid
7enemy facilities to uncover technological secrets or fill your storage
8bays so you can repair damaged units or build new ones in your own
9factories. Lead your troops to victory!

11Tools are available to create custom maps and campaigns. You can also play
12the original Battle Isle maps if you have a copy of the game.

14You can pit yourself against another human player either in hot-seat mode
15in front of the same machine, over a network, or via e-mail, or against
16the computer.
