1. WHAT IS "American Assault - TOTAL CONVERSION" ?
=========================================

American Assault is a total conversion (TC) add-on for Duke Nukem 3D v1.4/5. The TC takes place after " The Birth ". Duke takes his well deserved vacation but again it is screwed up but those alein maggots.  

Platoon TC features:

* Five new weapons ( 2x Pistol, 2 Barrel ShotGun, Gatling Gun,        Nuclear Pipebombs & the Super Devistator.

=====================================
2. INSTALLATION / STARTING A NEW GAME
=====================================

1) Copy the file American Assault.ZIP to your \Duke3d directory

2) Unzip the file American Assault.ZIP

3) Run American Assult.BAT

4) In Single Player, select 'START A NEW GAME' and the episode
   'Florida Fury'. After that you must choose the difficulty level.
   I recommend the easiest 'BRING IT ON!', because It is not to har       and not to easy.

5) For DukeMatch, the levels are in the 'USA MULTIPLAY' episode.

	Very usefull, but uses lots of ammo

* 2 Barrel Shotgun
	Ammo pack: 5 Shells  Max Shells: 50
	Nice power for blowing away those alien bastards

* Nuclear Grenades
	Ammo pack: 5 grenades   Max grenades: 10
	A very powerfull bomb with extra nuklear energy. stand a long         way from these when you detonate them.
