OPERATION HANOI

Players Premier, 1990

It is 1985. You are an officer in the freedom army of Ching Lai, the heroic
general who led your country to rise and overthrow its oppressive imperialist
overlords. Now that peace has finally settled over the land, after generations
of conflict, starvation, and desperation, you must go and help your kindred
fellows of Campuchia, separated from you only by the unnatural barriers of a
political border. They have been invaded by the malevolent forces of the
despotic dictator Lee Ho Fook. Villages have been razed to the ground, and
crops burnt. These conditions have forced the population to work under
conditions of slavery in the Jade mines that Lee Ho Fook is plundering in
order to sell to unscrupulous Middle Eastern arms dealers who, in return,
are supplying the parts to a new super-tank, disguised as mechanical parts
for an oil refinery. With this super-tank, Lee intends to subjugate the
surrounding territories. This despot will stop at nothing to fuel the fires
of his insane lust for power.

You are to lead a small, but stealthy, commando force, to capture and destroy
the super-tank. Success in your mission will lead to the end of Lee Ho Fook's
tyrannical dictatorship. Failure will surely lead not only to the continued
enslavery of the people of Campuchia, but also to the subjugation of the
surrounding lands. Before you embark on your mission you are summoned to a
private audience at Ching Lai's presidential palace. He wishes you good luck,
but also tells you that there is no point in you returning home without success.

Playing Instructions

Armed only with your automatic rifle and a handful of grenades, you and your
men must make your way to the Port of Cheduba where the super-tank is in
emplacement. On the way you must cross the Mekong River at its narrowest
point. This will involve you overrunning the Ngoc Liah garrison. After this
you must traverse the dangerous jungle of Toule Sap, where you are likely
to encounter Lee's guerilla forces. If you can overcome them you must make your
way to Cheduba to capture and destroy the super-tank.

that you have left, and the status of Lee's forces.
