REGISTRATION INFORMATION

Is This Product Crippled or What?

Yep, this is Shareware. This allows you, the consumer to try out this product, before you decide to plunk down some cold hard cash for it. As a matter of fact, nearly half of the registrations we have received have been paid for by USERS! But, this is a fully operational to the users until they hit level 6. They will not be able to continue until the game is registered.

If I Register, What Do I Get?

When you register Wildcat Tournament Legend of the Red Dragon, you will get a unique registration code with your name on it, printed JUST for you! This code can be easily entered with LORDCFG. Just use "(E)nter Registration Code". Once entered, the entire game will be functional.

By registering, you get:

-Twice as many levels and enemies.
-The game can be finished. (Players can go beyond level 6).
-(V)isit the Hall of Honor option in (T)urgon's Warrior Training will actually be useful.
-Allows "Tournament Mode" to be set on!
-You can change the number of forest fights and player fights a player is allowed to have.
-By supporting quality shareware such as this, you are making WT-LORD a better game.



FREE UPDATES! All future versions of Wildcat Tournamet LORD will work with your registration code. Actually getting the updates will be left up to you.


Wow! I Love This Game! HOW Do I Register?

First, remember the wonderful thing about shareware - you get to "Try before you buy" this game. What this means is that you know *exactly* what you are getting before you pay for it. If you are unhappy with ANY part of the operation, DO NOT send cash expecting it to work better. Registering WT-LORD simply lets you play the second half of the game, and defeat the infamous Red Dragon.

If you are having problems, call us for technical support BEFORE registering. We offer support to users whether or not they have registered Wildcat Tournament Legend of the Red Dragon.


DIFFERENCES FROM THE ORIGINAL LORD

* Added 'Jabbering with the Locals' teleconference to the Red Dragon Inn

* Killed the 'Olivia' forest event

* Killed "JENNIE" codes and replaced it with a new hint (typing 'jennie' shows you some of the new features)

* Horse Event is in the works for an upcoming release. The concept behind this is the possibility of stealing someone else's horse.. or taking it from them when (if) you defeat them in combat!

* Global Command Interface added.

* Global Paging (Screaming ) added. This allows you to 'yell' something to all the warriors in WT-LORD.

* Added some names to the 'restricted' list for choosing names :)

* Added more Thieving attack texts. Some of these are quite messy - I don't recommend eating and fighting in the forest at the same time.

* IGM Manager in LORDCFG allows you to easily and quickly add and remove IGMs to and from WT-LORD. No need to fuss with any text '.DAT' files.

* Language Filter option added to LORDCFG.



INTRODUCTION TO WILDCAT TOURNAMENT LEGEND OF THE RED DRAGON

Wildcat Tournament Legend of the Red Dragon (WT-LORD) is a multi-player battle game created for Wildcat! 5.x Bulletin Board Systems.

Wildcat Tournament Legend of the Red Dragon supports:

* True multi-node support. (Send online message, battles, and such!).

* Added Tournament Option. Allows the Sysop to set up Tournaments that will run for a set period of time. At the end of that duration, the user who is determined to have done the best will be declared the winner. Tournament mode also allows the Sysop to offer option prizes to the winner. (specifiable by the Sysop. Examples: Extra Time per day, T-Shirts, etc.)

* Lock out any player you don't like by putting their name in the LOCKOUT.DAT file. (coming soon)

* Optionally will create @ score files with any path and name in LORDCFG. Great option if you wish to display the WT-LORD scores as a bulletin on your BBS.

* Auto Maintenance as the first person of the day plays WT-LORD. Entire maintenance process takes less than 3 seconds on most systems.

* Auto deletion of inactive players. This is set via LORDCFG.

* Ultra easy to run. You don't have to do anything, ever. On the other hand, LORDCFG will allow the SysOp to become as involved with WT-LORD as he/she wants to be. Define many rules and enable/disable certain options. *NOTE* Not all options are available in the unregistered version.

* Powerful player editor.

* Players play an average of 10 to 15 minutes per day (at standard settings). The perfect game to compliment an active message base. In fact, that's why it was written. Keeps 'em coming back for more EACH DAY!

* Special Skills! Players can take their pick of being a "Death Knight", "Mystical Skills User", or a student of the "Thieving Skills." Or, become the ultimate warrior and learn them all!

* "Never Reset" game play. New approach to gaming! When a player successfully beats the Red Dragon, only *he* is reset. He does keep his special skills he has acquired, as well as his charm, children, and status in "The Old Man's Rankings."

* Much more text. Log "lementings" can be easily edited for a personalized game!

* Smart Mode: Users are automatically informed when another player enters the realm while they are online. Or leaves. Or sends a message. (Via messenger on horseback!)

* More interactive forest events. Many "secrets" to discover.

* Hundreds of ways for players to interact.

* Players can interact in our *NEW* Jabber With the Locals teleconference!

* Players can get married and have kids! (..Next Version)

* DarkCloak Tavern. Hard to find, but VERY interesting when you do.

* Powerful mail writing routines.

* Tastefully lewd, and sort of tastefully gory!

* Reach new heights of conversation with "Characters" from the game.
