Refer to https://wiki.emperorshammer.org/Installing_TFTC_Missions for guided instructions if needed.

1] Unless battle is being installed on a dedicated TFTC-R install for EH battles, create a backup of
   the following original files so that you will be able to restore them after uninstall.

\TFTC\fronttext.txt
\TFTC\MedalsDescriptions.txt
\TFTC\Frontres\Medals\Battle0_HD.dat
\TFTC\Frontres\Medals\LBattle0_HD.dat
\TFTC\Frontres\Medals\LBattle0.cbm
\TFTC\Frontres\Medals\MEDALS.txt

2] Copy the contents of zip folder into the main TFTC directory, allow it to overwrite any files.

3] Play using the provided pilot file.


Uninstall Instructions
--------------------------

1] Restore the following from your backup:

\TFTC\fronttext.txt 		                   >>>> restore
\TFTC\MedalsDescriptions.txt    		   >>>> restore
\TFTC\Frontres\Medals\Battle0_HD.dat		   >>>> restore

Introduction
-------------

In many of my other remasters I speak about how this designer or that is one of my favorite XWA
creators, and that is all true, but when someone asks me for a recommendation for a XWA battle I
ALWAYS recommend the Hammer to Anvil series by Sauron. This series of four battles for XWA is
without a doubt, for me, the best story told in the Emperor's Hammer database. As such, I have
endeavored to bring it to TFTC and give it all the bells and whistles I could. This project, all
four remasters, has required nearly 20 different individual contributors, resulting in over four
hours of dialog to be edited and placed into the game for the 25 missions of the total series.

One of the major changes I have made to the series was the decision to incorporate the
accompanying fiction for each battle into the mission briefings themselves. This has resulted in
some briefings being too long for the XWA game engine to display. As such the Commander's
Briefing in Mission 1 of this battle is much longer than normal. The audio file has the complete
briefing but the text displayed on screen is only an abbreviated version. It is HIGHLY recommended
to play, at least this mission, with the audio enabled.

These battles are HIGHLY story driven and as such it is highly recommended to fully read/listen to
all the briefings and to read the emails prior to each mission.

From the Original Readme:

Plotline:

A routine patrol by an EH task force has led to them leaving contact with us.  Fleet Command has
dispatched a small force to investigate the whereabouts of this task force, led by the Victory-Star
Destroyer Formidable.  Be on guard, and discover what has happened to our fleet as soon as possible.



Audio
-------------

This battle uses a mixture of human voices, both natural and using a voice changer
to alter my voice for the different roles.
