	I saw a nifty little game the other day for the PC in which you
set up a certain number of players (computer or human) and each gets a
colored tank and some shells, and are dropped onto a hillscape.

	The players then must calculate barrel angle and shell power
to take out the other players (taking the wind speed and direction into
effect).  As you gain points (by destroying the opponent(s)) you gain
money and can buy extra and better weapons, including dirtballs, explosives,
chain reaction inducers (to eat away the landscape), and nukes.  There are
even weapons quidance systems to enhance your accuracy.  Destroying the enemy
can also give a wild display of sights and sounds depending on how well they
were hit, and occasionally the fall-out can even hurt yourself.

	First off, has anyone seen this game that can help me with the name,
and second, is it available for the ST?  I would appreciate any help that I can
get, and will be looking forward to replies.

Thanks

swood
