In the 1 player game, you control a group or raiders "attacking" the base (with the computer defending). In the 2 player game someone will need to control the group of raiders "attacking" the base and someone else will need to control the group of droids "defending" the base. The raiders must get through the airlocks and destroy all of the droids OR the central computer (ISAAC) to win. The defending droids must wipe out all the raiders to win. A great strategy game whichever side you are on. Units can be moved, pick up / drop objects, re-load weapons, heal (units can get wounded) and of course fire to destroy enemy units. If the raiders destroy all 5 defence units, they will receive re-inforcements. Each unit has varying amounts of strength, skill, ammo, armour etc which makes for an interesting game.  Good luck!

Information

Title: Rebelstar
Company: Firebird
Written by: Julian Gollop
Type: Strategy
Year: 1986
Players: One or Two

Plot

This is no ordinary game! There is no fancy story or scenario, just you against the computer (or a friend if you choose to play 2 player option). It is a fight to the death. There are no half measures, no truces or pacts. The battle will be hard fought....but the winner will be supreme!

Game play

In the 1 player game, you control a group or raiders "attacking" the base (with the computer defending). In the 2 player game someone will need to control the group of raiders "attacking" the base and someone else will need to control the group of droids "defending" the base. The raiders must get through the airlocks and destroy all of the droids OR the central computer (ISAAC) to win. The defending droids must wipe out all the raiders to win. A great strategy game whichever side you are on. Units can be moved, pick up / drop objects, re-load weapons, heal (units can get wounded) and of course fire to destroy enemy units. If the raiders destroy all 5 defence units, they will receive re-inforcements. Each unit has varying amounts of strength, skill, ammo, armour etc which makes for an interesting game. Good luck!
