DECWAR provides a Pre-game feature to allow:
- New players to view the help file without entering the current
game.
- Experienced players to check the status of a current game
before choosing a side and ship.
- Players to submit Gripes without entering the game.
The commands currently active within the Pre-game section are:
Activate Gripe Help News Points Quit
Summary Time Users
The ACTIVATE command (valid only in the pre-game) is used to
exit the pre-game section and enter the normal ship setup stage.
The pre-game can be recognized from the 'PG>' command prompt, as
well as the DECWPG program name.
