ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS |======================================================= +======================+ The following are a list of people or organizations that have made this FAQ possible: My wonderful family (who has had to put up with the tapping on the keyboard) KOEI for making a great war game GameFAQ's for putting up this FAQ +=============+ | 4. WELCOME |================================================================ +=============+ Welcome to my in-depth FAQ for Operation Europe. This is not, however, a FAQ or strategy guide for the game. It is instead a data/hex dump of the program. What this means is that the data or information that was on the cartridge was dumped into a more useable form. There are several purposes or reasons for a hex dump. The big reason is that if you are playing a game and you don't think you have gotten everything, you can dump a programs contents to see all of the different items or objects that exist. This is especially helpful with the "rumored" objects or the very rare objects that may occur in a game. Another reason for a dump is if you are writing a FAQ for a game. Granted you may have played the game many times over, but you want to make sure the information is correct; this is the way to confirm your information. I will attempt to make this guide as user friendly as possible. I will explain each section and chapter as they occur for what data you are looking at. I will also explain some of the more interesting things that I found after I did the dump. Again, this is not a strategy guide. It is instead to be used as a resource to enhance your game playing experience. Since there are no spoilers in the game, most things that appear in this guide should not be a surprise as you go through the game. If you wish to e-mail me your thoughts on this FAQ, better ways of doing things, other strategies, etc., feel free. Make sure you put Operation Europe FAQ in the subject. If you don't, I'm liable to discard the e-mail as spam. +==============+ | 5. OVERVIEW |=============================================================== +==============+ Operation Europe takes place in the European Theater of Operations (ETO). Instead of going through the entire history of WWII in the ETO, selected battles are used instead. These battles range from France's plains to the steppes of Russia to the deserts of North Africa. You then decide whether you want to be the Allies or Axis in these battles. Your job then will be to achieve the victory conditions defined by the specific battle you are fighting. At your disposal are all the resources (equipment, commanders, etc.) available at that time to ensure victory. You also must not only be familiar with how to fight battles, but also all the planning, logistics, and pitfalls of how to properly plan and fight a battle to ensure maximum effect. This means, causing a heckuva lot more casualties to the enemy then your troops receive. Good luck. *************** ******************************** U N I T II ********************************** *************** +=================================+ | 6.

This will not be the last battle in this war. I will be the victor in our next battle! I'll be better prepared next time! We'll fix this defeat with our next victory.

Good job. It looks like we've held them off. We've got to crush that unit! Let's settle things with our next move. If we can't take the city the first time, we'll continue to attack until we do. One sweeping move should capture the city in the next assault. We should abandon this city. Only the defending units remain. Will the reinforcements ever get here? We only need a little more time... We're prepared. There should be no problems. Even if they gang up on us, we have to beat them back. I'm more than your match! the victor of our battle will be decided! Head straight into them.

Start the attack by surrounding the enemy defense fortification. Retreat and link up with our battle units. We are not retreating. We're just repositioning. only a coward would attack a unit that has run out of strength. Defense of our forces is essential to limit casualties. Stop worrying and pull yourselves together. Don't attack until we've got them where we want them. but how hard we can attack. Let's not just show them how we can move, is sure to cause the enemy problems. be aware of each units' ability to move. I'd rather not attack noncombatants, but that is part of the strategy of war.

AFTERTHOUGHTS |========================================================== +===================+ I've played this game many times but I have often wondered about what things one would see. After doing this data dump, I realized I had seen most of the messages and other data. There were some things, though, that were in- teresting such as some of the quotes made by the commanders. It was fun doing this data dump and I may do it to a few other games I have since there are things in these games that are truly interesting and fun.
