player have chosen to be will appear in the upper left hand
corner of the screen. Press the space bar to roll the dice
and the computer will move your ship forward.
more . . .
HOW TO PLAY (Continued)
When your ship lands on a space, one of the following things
will happen:
QUESTION SPACE You will be asked a multiple choice
question about ships, pirates, history,
sailing, or geography. If you get it
right, you will earn gold, cannons,
supplies, or disaster insurance cards.
These spaces usually make the difference
between winning and losing the game.
DISASTER SPACE Something bad will happen. You will lose
turns, go back (which isn't always bad),
lose treasure, or lose supplies. Certain
supplies avoid certain disasters: rope
will help you get off sandbars, a compass
will help you navigate through fog,
bales of cotton plug up holes in the
bottom of your ship. Of course, disaster
insurance cards cancel these disasters.
more . . .
TYPES OF SPACES ON THE GAME BOARD (Continued)
TREASURE SPACE Find treasure!
MISCELLANEOUS Buy supplies, find treasure maps, ransom
hostages, buy cannons, take chances, etc.
RAID A CITY It is usually to your advantage to fight
a city because you may win some of their
gold, and the only thing you have to lose
is one turn. Hint: get as many cannons
as you can as soon as possible!
FIGHT A PLAYER When you land on another player's ship,
you have the choice to fight for the
space or to fall back to the first open
space. If you fight, EACH PLAYER risks
losing up to half of their gold to the
other player. Hint: get as many cannons
as you can as soon as possible! The
attacker always has the advantage because
attackers always win ties.
more . . .
FIGHTING WITH CANNONS:
It will be to your advantage to get as many cannons (maximum
of four) as possible. Each time you raid a city, attack
another player, or another player attacks you, here's what
happens:
1) The attacker and defender will appear on the screen
and Redhook will arbitrate the fight.
2) The defender will roll the dice first: one die for
each cannon he/she has.
3) Next the attacker will roll the dice, one die for
each cannon he/she has.
4) Redhook will sort the dice on the screen from the
highest to the lowest and determine who won.
ATTACKERS WIN ALL TIES.
5) Redhook will award any loot won to the victor, and in
the case of a ship to ship fight, send the loser back
to the first open space.
more . . .
FIGHTING WITH CANNONS (Continued)
Smart players watch other players closely: It's not usually
to your advantage to fight another player when they have
landed on a disaster space. Remember, when you fight
another player, EACH player can lose up to HALF of their
gold to the other player -- if you have lots of gold and few
cannons, don't attack a player who has little gold and
several cannons! On the other hand, if you are in last
place, try to attack players with piles of gold -- remember
attackers always win ties.
FOOD / WATER / RUM:
One ration of food, water, and rum is used on each turn.
Some spaces allow you to buy these items; it is up to you to
determine whether the price is fair, and how much you should
buy when given the opportunity. If you run out of one of
the above items, you will lose a turn, and Redhook will
force you to by them at the following prices:
Food 50 doubloons per day
Water 30 doubloons per day
Rum 100 doubloons per day
more . . .
OTHER SUPPLIES:
Rope, canvas, cotton, and a compass will all help you to
avoid certain disasters along the way. You can't buy these
items: generally, the only way to get these items is to
answer a question space correctly.
HOSTAGES:
Sometimes after looting ships and cities you will capture
hostages. Redhook may offer ransom for your hostages from
time to time: it's up to you to determine whether the price
is fair, or whether to hold out for a higher price later.
Hostages which are not ransomed by the end of the game are
worthless.
TREASURE MAPS:
Treasure maps are either extremely valuable or worthless.
You won't know until you find one!
more . . .
A FINAL NOTE
Much of the pirate's dialogue comes from Robert Louis
Stevenson's classic novel, "Treasure Island". Many of the
expressions used by the pirates in Redhook's Revenge such
as, "skulk", "don't stand there squalling", "lubber", "bless
me deadlights", and "if you had the pluck of a weevil in a
biscuit" evolved from life on the sea. The expression,
"meaner than the son of a double Dutchman" developed because
the Dutch were the most feared of all pirates. There are
hundreds of these saying in Redhook's Revenge, and we hope
that it enhances your pleasure in playing it.
The factual information for Redhook's Revenge was derived
from the books "The Funnel of Gold" by Mendel Peterson, "The
Sack of Panama" and "The Treasure of the Concepcion" by
Peter Earle. We wish to thank these scholars for their in
depth research.
The name "Redhook" was taken from Redhook Bay on St. Thomas
Island. Most of the names on the playing board, such as
Gallows Point, can be found somewhere in the Caribbean.
The player's names, with the exception of Blackbeard, are
fictitious.

ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS
QUESTION: I get the message "VGA Monitor required." when I try to
run Redhook's Revenge. What I do?
ANSWER: Your IBM compatible PC doesn't have a VGA monitor. If
you want to run Redhook's Revenge, you will have to go
to a computer store to see it run. Maybe you'll decide
that it's time to get a new computer!
QUESTION: Can I run Redhook's Revenge from a floppy drive?
ANSWER: Yes, by entering the command REDHOOK, but the game will
run slower than it would on a hard drive.
QUESTION: How do I install Redhook's Revenge to my hard drive?
ANSWER: We have provided a simple installation program so that
you can install Redhook's Revenge to your hard drive:
1. Insert the diskette into the floppy drive.
2. Type A:INSTALL (or B:INSTALL) then press [Enter].
3. Follow the instructions as they appear on your
screen. You can install it to any directory that you
want to, but for the purposes of this documentation,
we assume that you will install it to C:\REDHOOK.
QUESTION: My mouse works in Microsoft Windows, why doesn't it work
in Redhook's Revenge?
ANSWER: Windows has special built-in drivers to support mice.
Our software looks for a Microsoft compatible mouse
driver which is loaded when you turn on your computer.
A diskette should have come with your mouse which
contains MOUSE.SYS, MOUSE.COM or similar files. Try
placing the command DEVICE = MOUSE.SYS in your
CONFIG.SYS file or the command MOUSE.COM in your
AUTOEXEC.BAT file. These are the files that DOS
executes when you turn on your computer, and if your
mouse is Microsoft compatible, your mouse should now
work.
QUESTION: Can Redhook's Revenge be run under Microsoft Windows?
ANSWER: Yes, although it is not a Windows product. Here's how:
1. In the Program Manager press the ALT-F for the "Files
Menu".
2. Press N for "New".
3. Select "Program Item".
4. Under "Description" enter Redhook.
5. Under "Command Line" enter \REDHOOK\REDHOOK.PIF.
6. Press the "Change Icon" button and when it prompts for
the file name enter \REDHOOK\REDHOOK.ICO then press OK.
QUESTION: I get the message "Not enough memory" and my program
doesn't run. What can I do?
ANSWER: You need a computer with at least 640K memory to run
our software. Run the CHKDSK command to make sure that
you have "655360 total bytes memory". The last line
tells you how many bytes your computer has free. If
your computer has less than 560000 bytes free, a
program loaded in your CONFIG.SYS or AUTOEXEC.BAT file
is taking up memory. Locate a knowledgeable person and
ask him/her to help you get these programs out of your
memory. If you have a 286 or 386 computer and 1
megabyte of memory or more, you can free additional
memory by upgrading to DOS 5.0.
QUESTION: I don't understand what "shareware" is. Why do I have
to order Redhook's Revenge if I already have a copy of
it?
ANSWER: Because you haven't paid for it. If you "bought"
Redhook's Revenge from a shareware vendor, you only paid
for the disk, not the actual program. At the opening
screen of Redhook's Revenge, press the F2 key. A
detailed explanation about the shareware concept will
appear for you there.
To reward those who actually register Redhook's Revenge
we have included extra "bonus" features which are not in
the shareware version. See the order form for details.
Thank you for playing Redhook's Revenge! We hope you get hours of
enjoyment from our program. If you have any further questions or
problems, please contact us:

THANK YOU!
We at ImagiSOFT enjoyed developing Redhook's Revenge, and
hope you like it as much as we do. Mike Prestwich
researched Redhook, developed the concept, wrote the
documentation, and wrote the script. We would like to thank
Robert Louis Stevenson, from whom we borrowed generously
from his classic work, Treasure Island. Most of the
historical information about pirates, ships, weapons, and
events came from the books "The Funnel of Gold" by Mendel
Peterson, and "The Sack of Panama" and "The Treasure of the
Concepcion" by Peter Earle.
David Sanders developed many new assembly language routines
to program Redhook; it is his remarkable talent that makes
Redhook (and our other products) work so well on your
computer. Russ Chancellor's extraordinary artwork was drawn
by hand on the screen, not scanned, using Deluxe Paint II.
Robert Allen composed the music which adds so much to the
atmosphere of Redhook. Lastly, our quality control staff
gave Redhook a thorough work out before it was released.
Of course, without the financial support of our loyal
customers, Redhook's Revenge wouldn't be have been created.
We appreciate you most of all!
