Synopsis

Richard the Lionheart is building his forces for the Third Crusade - your men are scattered across the forest of medieval England and Prince John's army is hunting you. On the screen you will see lettered squares representing your crusaders - to gather a group, simply move to the square they occupy by pressing the arrow keys. You can put them together in any order, but the higher lettered squares represent a larger number of men. To get to the Holy Land, you must leave England through the bottom right corner of the screen with at least 450 men - the number you have with you at all times is displayed at the top left. Some groups may initially be surrounded by dense forest, through which you cannot pass. Prince John's army, however, is pursuing a scorched earth policy, destroying the forest as it takes refuge on you, and you can turn this to your advantage to create a route to your trapped men using you as bait, drawing the prince's forces onto the patches of forest obstructing you. You must be careful not to attract the prince's forces to a square occupied by the men you are looking for, because they will be destroyed.
