User guide
You start off with $5000 which you use to buy troops (soldiers, barbarians, elves, ghosts, etc).
You can also spend extra money to increase their stats. After you have bought some troops, you can start the game.
You have manual control over one of your troops and the rest behave via AI. You can switch between members of your group, too.
The objective is to clear each board and progress through all 99 levels.
You can edit the /DATA/OPENGLAD.CFG file to change the game and menu music you hear. The file you select can be just about anything (wav, mp3, ogg, mod, etc)
