About this game

Banyon Wars is a turn-based conquest game in which the blue Cronons face two computer armies, the red Tabors and white Hilites. The goal is to control all eight islands. Cities supply reinforcements, and holding an entire island adds a bonus, making connected territory more useful than scattered possessions.

At your turn, allocate armies using the numbered cities, then choose attacks with A. P passes to the computer. M makes a final transfer to an adjoining friendly territory and automatically ends the turn, so do other work first. O opens options and H displays help.

The version 2.0 manual also describes earthquakes, floods, rebellions and volcanic eruptions that can reduce armies. Production centres can benefit from good weather. Keep reserves rather than relying on every occupied city remaining unchanged.

Quick tips

Use M only after finishing your attacks.

Holding every city on an island grants extra armies.
