Metal & Lace: The Battle of the Robo Babes (Documentation)
METAL & LACE - BATTLE OF THE ROBO-BABES QUICK DOX
by Cyber Angel
BASIC RULES/STARTING
You begin the game in the bar. At this moment, whatever you
click on will answer "Sorry, gotta go now". You must click on the
icon found in the bottom left corner of the screen. Click on ther
bottom that sais "69" and you will get the password screen - if you
were smart enough to run the CRACK first, you can enter ANY 5 DIGITS
and it will let you choose the name, second name, and the password
(optional) for the character. After you have created the character
you might want to spend some more time with those icons and configure
the keys for fighting, etc.
Now, before you can progress furthermore, you need the Robo-Armor.
In this game you can speak with MANY people and objects in the bar -
right now you have to click o the FLOOR - just anywhere on it. Each time
you click on it, it will tell you something. Sometimes it is a useless
phrase, like "Don't spit on me" or such. You have to keep clicking -
you might either pick up some cash, or find a ROBO-ARMOR - which is
important to us right now. There is MORE THAN ONE robo-armor hidden in
the room. Keep clicking on the floor every ones in a while, and you will
find a few. There are also some penalties for clicking on the floor, but
I will tell about that later on - right now you have no choice but to look
for the Armor.
After you have found it, click on the blond babe in red, that
stands near the bartender. You will get a list of choices, out of which
you should choose to "Give her a Big Ben" ($100). After you have done so,
she will tell you to "Tell the old man JAIMEE sent ya". Leave her than,
and click in the TOP RIGHT corner of the screen, on the wall. Someone will
ask you for the password, and you should type in JAIMEE. I do not know
if it would work if you knowing the password will try it w/o talking to
JAIMEE. Try it - maybe it will save you a $100. Either way, you end up
in the store where the enhansments for the robo-armor sold. You can
find out what each item does by clicking on it and asking the salesman.
***HINT*** You DO need at least 1 (preferrably more) level ]i[ batterie,
and a couple of level I and II's would help.
LEVEL I - gives you 50 Hit Points to your armor
LEVEL II 100 Hit Points
LEVEL III restores your HP to the maximum, whatever the # is
(Do your math and spend batteries wisely.) :)
***Make sure*** to have a few hundred left when you exit the store.
Go back to the blone babe, and choose to sign up with Robo-Tech,
a.k.a. - go fight. As you sign up and pay the fee, you are given the
list of Robo-Babes you can fight. They get harder to beat from left to
right, so choose the first one. As you do so, the girl comes up to you
and you have 3 choices - ignore her, give her $50 or give her $100.
If you ignore her you will not have any info on the opponent before the
battle starts. If you pay a 50, you will see which ARMOR opponent uses,
but nothing more. If you shell out a 100, you will get all the info,
including the hit points and accesories on Babe's armor. I recommend
to pay a hundred the first time, and than, if you are defeated, just
ignore the girl - Robo-Babe will NEVER change the armor if she won. If
she lost, however, I strongly recommend to pay another hundres, since
she will use a diffirent armor now. You have to defeat each Robo-Babe
twice and than go on to the next one.
MONEY MAKING/SPENDING / CHARACTERS IN THE BAR
You start out with $5,000 which is a pretty good amount
in the game. In each battle you spend more or less hit points, and you
need to buy the new batteries. Having money you can also buy a few
accessories that will make it easier for you to win. You also must
spend the money for each time you enter battle, and you only get some
back when you win. However, there is a dozen way to make some cash
or acquire gadgets in this game. For this you must talk to the
people/objects in a bar. Here is a list of people/things you can talk
to, what you can get from them, etc..:
***Remember*** They will not give you what you need at once. You must
listen to quite a lot of garbage before they give you
something. Also, they will give you objects the infinite
amount of time - if you will have patience to stay there
and click on the mouse.
***Warning*** Each character might give you something, but you might
LOOSE money or item when you talk to them - be careful
BARTENDER - found on the left of the screen
He will rarely give you some money, saying "JAIMEE said to give
it to you". Sometimes he asks you to "pay for drink" and you
loose $100, but its worth it to stay there since he also sells
ILLEGAL BATTERIES. When he asks you if you want to buy some
Mech-Warrior stuff, you have a choice of "great, I will take it",
and "Is it stolen?". NEVER use the second one, otherwise he will
never offer you items again. If you use "take it", game will
deduct a 1,500 bucks from you, and give you 3 level III batteries
(cheeper than in the store). If you have less than that, or no
money at all, still say "I will take it". The guy will actually
give it to you FOR FREE.
BLONDE - near the bar, wearing red
After you have given her the $100 once to get the password, don't
do it again. Only click on her when you want to enter the Ring.
WOLF McGIRT - guy in the Army uniform found near the blonde
He can land you the money when you need it but be careful - you
gotta pay back with percentage. The amount you cna borrow is
limited, but do not hesitate to come up to him when you already
own him money, but not the full amount - he WILL give you more
ASHTRAY - on the bar, near Wolf
Will give you some cash or an Amplifier once in a while. I
did not find any "bad" effects, so its worth clicking on it
every once in a while.
RADIO - On the top right of the screen.
It sometimes gives you nice amounts of cash, but I lost one of
my Robo-Armors to it - it says 'caller #12 has just won your
such-and-such armor", so I did not ever try it again. However,
if you have lots of armors in need cash badly, try it.
KEG - on the very bottom of the screen, near the posters
Gives you cash or gadgets sometimes, but be careful, sometimes it
tells you "oops, someone jus picked your pockets" and you loose
$1,000. It is smart to try talking to it when you have no money,
than you have nothing to loose.
BRUNETTE - girl drinking bear
She only suggests you buy the two arena keepers a bear for $25. I
really did not figure why the hell should I do that, but hey, its
only $25, I suggest that you do it once.
FLOOR - all over the place :)
You can find alot of items here, like Robo-Armors (the ONLY place
I was able to get them from), cash, etc. Howver, you fall eevry
once in a while and can get your Robo-Armor to "leak".
TOUGH GUY - at the back of the bar
He is the "most profitable" one. he gives you various amounts
of cash, batteries, etc. Sometomes. he punches you, saying "stay
away from JAIMEE", and computer tells you that "It did not help
your leaking problem".. I guess it makes your armor worse, but
its still worth it.
BOX - to the right of Touch Guy - big wooden box
You can find a book in it, and read about the Mecha-Fighting,
etc. Really, nothing important.
WINDOW - above the box
It insults you all the time and VERY rarely wold give you $20, so
USUALLY its not worth talking to. But if you want to get into the
Arena w/o paying to the Blonde, keep clicking on the window -
eventually it will tell you "You are so ugly, I am teleporting your
ass out of here." and through you into the arena.
That seems to cover it - GOOD LUCK
