TABLE OF CONTENTS

About Photosensitive Seizures

A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, including flashing light patterns that may appear in video games. Even people who have no history of seizure or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games.

These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects.

Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above symptoms–children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these seizures.

The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by sitting farther from the monitor, using a smaller monitor, playing in a well-lit room, and not playing when you are drowsy or fatigued.

If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor before playing.

MYTHICAL BEINGS

Legions of alien cultures revere Humans as mythical beings. To them, the Human is a glorious treasure whose very existence was in doubt until now. Fables of legendary human powers have echoed through the universe for eons. But there is also a civilization that craves nothing less than the total extermination of Mankind.

Before today, the Humans knew nothing of this.

A small entourage of Humans is experiencing the uneasy excitement of first contact with an alien culture. Captain Gideon Wyeth has the honor of joining those on a mission to greet the Aurelians, a civilization far more evolved than his own.

Gideon is about to learn that Humanity stands both in the shadow of obliteration, and at the dawn of transcendence. He will also discover those legendary human powers flowing from his own hands. The Advent of Humanity begins.

HEADS UP DISPLAY

The Heads-Up-Display (HUD) shows data for weapons, power, and health.

Note: You can set the HUD to display all the time or display and fade by

setting this option in “Game Options.” When under attack, a red pointer shows the direction of an off-screen attacker.

LEFT-HANDED AND RIGHT-HANDED WEAPONS

Once you have equipped a weapon/power in the Left or Right hand, data about it appears here.

HEALTH METER

This green meter drains and turns red as Gideon takes combat injuries. When Gideon’s condition turns critical, an alarm will sound indicating that additional hits could be fatal. At first, Gideon must find Nano Med stations for first aid, but once he gains mastery over his health, Gideon can regain full health without using Nano Med stations. The health meter will recharge as long as he avoids injury for a brief time.

POWER METER AND POWER NUMBER

This meter and number appear whenever Gideon has a power equipped. The meter level and power number diminish as Gideon expends power. Once empty, Gideon cannot use his powers again until the meter recharges enough to use a given power. This will vary by power.

ROUNDS REMAINING IN CLIP/TOTAL ROUNDS

This shows the total rounds in the weapon and the total rounds carried for reloading. Reload is automatic once you empty the clip or you can press the

key to manually reload at any time during gameplay.

MASTERY LEVEL

This number shows the mastery level attained for the weapon/power equipped in the right or left hand. Use of weapon and power skills result in increased mastery level ratings. When the mastery level for any skill rises, an alert appears on-screen and this number increases. Increased mastery levels intensify the damage of attacks and enable alternate modes for both weapons and powers. Gideon becomes more agile and his melee attacks turn lethal when jump and melee mastery increases. To view the effects of a mastery level for each weapon or power, select WEAPONS or POWERS from the Pause Menu.

FLICK-TARGETING – THE KEY TO GIDEON’S POWER

FIRST-PERSON BATTLE

With Flick-Targeting, Gideon swiftly locks on targets by using

mmoouussee wwhheeeell

the mouse wheel up to target enemies on your left or down to target enemies on your right. Then deliver a highly accurate weapon or power attack. Whenever an enemy or object is within range, you can use the Flick-Targeting system. A targeted enemy displays a bracket that remains locked on until you flick to another target. To break your target lock, press

mmoouussee wwhheeeell

the

With Flick-Targeting, you can:

• Lock onto an enemy and attack instantly with the weapon or power equipped in either hand.

• Quickly flick from one target to the next when confronting multiple objects or enemies.

. Roll the

mmoouussee 33

or click

THE TARGETING BRACKET COLORS

• Targeting brackets show enemy health and resistance to attack.

Green – The enemy is strong Orange – Weakened but still very dangerous Red – Severely injured and ready to fall

• Blue brackets appear around inanimate objects that are moveable.

To toggle in and out of First-Person Mode, press the ttkey. Flick-Targeting is not available in First-Person Mode, but a reticle appears in the center of the battle screen to aid in weapon aiming.

• When aimed at an enemy, the reticle turns red but turns green whenever it is placed over a friendly.

• First-person mode is ideal when enemies are out of Flick-Targeting range.

Note: You must return to Third Person Mode to use the Lift Power.

USING WEAPONS

Gideon can use any weapons that have been dropped by others or grab them from gun cabinets.

• Decide which hand you want to hold the weapon in by pressing the qqor

key to equip it when you see the on-screen prompt.

• Gideon will drop the weapon he holds when picking up another weapon.

• Fire weapons with or without the aid of Flick-Targeting, but a weapon will stay locked on a flick-targeted enemy for increased accuracy.

• When you run out of ammo, reload is automatic as long as extra ammo is available. Press the rrkey to reload manually.

To pick up ammo for a weapon, you must have the weapon in inventory. Walk over a weapon you already have in inventory to take its ammo or walk up to a gun cabinet. This is a good reason to check out any weapons you see lying around during battle.

Note: Pause the game and select WEAPONS to view additional details on all side arms.

FAUST C-41

Standard military issue .90 caliber concussion pistol with armor-piercing rounds.

ROCKWELL YOUNG XJ9

Assault rifle with ceramic piston release shaft and sub-mounted grenade launcher.

TALMAGE 50.08

Delivers 3 MoliPack self-propelled rockets which can be fired along a straight vector or alternately guided along a sonic pathway.

H.A.Z.E. BLASTER

A prototype fusion weapon that fires a plasma-coated kernel of radioactive matter which can fuse explosively upon contact or be wrapped in an entropic field for a delayed explosion.

G’KOL ACOLYTE

Standard issue Seeker pulse-rifle. Delivers a barrage of superheated particles kinetically bonded to an unstable silicon projectile. These projectiles can be loaded with a simple quark mind-drive to track enemy life signs and explode on contact.

KAULL FIRELANCE

Charge-stripped ions literally tear through spacetime, gathering entropic energy weaves before impacting on their target. The ions can be layered back upon themselves to build a massive rip in local space and unleash unpredictably multi-directional forces.

DARKFIRE

The grav-shielded singularity core embedded in each clip generates muon fragments of dark-matter and then accelerates them along a threaded high gravity bore. The entire core can be unshielded and released as a short-range explosive.

D’NEX TALON

Fires a sphere of volatile colloid transmetals which unravel explosively upon contact or can be spun into an inertial sponge, releasing the gathered ricochet energy upon contact with organic tissue.

SHADOWSTALKER

Polarized supermolecules are fired along null conductor channels at sub light speeds, causing micro fission blasts upon contact. Comes equipped with a poly-rez genscope able to accurately analyze distance, atmospheric interference, and DNA maps of the target.

DISCORD

Resonant inertial friction modulator causes quantum level vibrations in the molecules, electrons, even light-waves in a limited area. Can generate immense heat for short periods of time, even in a defensive (although moderately damaging) radius around the weapon.

GNASHBONE FURY

A multi-tiered intelligent projectile platform capable of guiding multiple implosion rockets towards several targets simultaneously.

GRENADES

Press the ggkey to throw a grenade. Flick targeting an enemy before the throw guarantees an accurate grenade attack, but be prepared for swift enemies to leap clear of the explosion. Pick up grenades dropped by the enemy or Gideon’s own allied marines.

USING POWERS

Gideon can unleash superhuman powers to destroy his enemies. Equip and use powers in the same way you would use weapons.

• Power use depletes energy so keep an eye on the power meter. You lose use of the power when the meter runs out but exhausted powers replenish themselves over time.

• For more details on each power, select POWERS from the Pause Menu once POWER appears as an option.

LIFT

Redirect energy to levitate and control enemies or move objects. Flick-target an enemy or object. Once locked, press and hold the mouse button equipped with Lift. Use the mouse to move the enemy (or object) where you want it and release the button to drop it.

• While an enemy is lifted, you can attack with the weapon or power held in Gideon’s other hand.

• Perfect the ability to throw enemies and objects.

• Alternate mode enables Gideon to lift more than one enemy at a time

TIME SHIFT

Move through time and space with such force that Gideon bashes into objects when shifting into the position they occupy. The alternate Time-Shift mode speeds up Gideon to the point where time and the motion of all other beings slows to a crawl.

SURGE

Use the Surge power to shift gravitational energy in a focused direction. Press and hold the mouse button you’ve assigned for the Surge Power to increase the power before releasing it. Increase mastery and gain the power to snatch a weapon out of an enemy’s grasp.

NEGATE

Gideon can create a shield to deflect attacks and as his mastery level increases, he can create multiple shields. The alternate mode generates a defensive sphere that surrounds and protects Gideon as he moves.

AEON PULSE

Gideon amplifies his own electromagnetic field to unleash a lethal pulse and ultimately masters the radial flare for a full 360 degrees of destruction. Press and hold the assigned to increase the pulse output before firing.

mmoouussee

button you

SHATTER

Slice into enemies with lethal absolute zero-temperature ice shards. Master the shatter power to transform your enemy into a frozen, motionless statue. Once you reach the ultimate mastery of the Shatter power, the radius of each attack increases to encompass more enemies.

MELEE COMBAT

Press the ffkey repeatedly to deliver a combination of attacks that grow more deadly as your mastery level for fighting increases. Gideon progresses from simple brawling skills to fierce attack combinations with fatal blows.

He will also learn to unleash a powerful downward punch by charge jumping (

) and punching to deliver the final blow.

DRIVING THE SCYTHE

THE CHARACTERS

The Scythe is a combat ATV sporting a turret-mounted chain gun. If you are traveling with someone else, he or she will jump into the turret while you drive. If you are alone, you cannot drive and shoot simultaneously. You must jump out of the driver’s seat and into the turret.

HUMANS

GIDEON WYETH

Coming from a long line of fighting men, Gideon Wyeth was pressured to attend Military Academy in his teens. There he proved himself second to none in flight combat. His graduation was accelerated and he was able to fight in the last year of the Independence war. His strategic brilliance helped him to rise quickly in rank, and he found himself high up in intelligence circles when the war ended. Under governmental pay he now assists the reestablishment of antebellum prosperity to war-torn areas of the world.

ETHAN WYETH

Ethan Wyeth is recognized as the sole reason for the Federation’s victory over the allied nations. He is Edumea’s most celebrated hero. In the years since the war, his popularity has continued to increase and with extensive product endorsements, books and movie deals he has turned his fame into a veritable gold mine.

OLIVIA

Olivia, Gideon’s fiancée, is strong willed, ambitious

and uncommonly intelligent. She is driven by the

study of advanced theoretical physics. After

completing her graduate studies early at the age

of 19 she was hired by the Federation as part of

an elite team of renowned physicists to begin

development on a new form of energy in an

attempt to stabilize the devastated lands where the war was fought. The project has recently

begun a 6-month testing phase on Lurium where

she is currently stationed.

MARIN

Marin Steel is a smart, independent woman who has an insatiable thirst for adventure. After

becoming one of the most decorated pilots during

the Independence wars, she was hired as an executive pilot for a leading contractor of the

Federation military. This gives her the opportunity

to fly, test and use cutting edge military technology.

CREDITS

AURELIANS

ENORYM

Enorym commands the elite Felidic Warriors, and is beloved of his troops and known throughout the Aurelian Military not only for his bravery and strength but also for his wisdom and integrity. Under the wings of Kelehm this popular hero is fast becoming a force to be reckoned with in political circles as well. Enorym’s loyalty to Kelehm is only rivaled by his devotion to Aurelia.

THE SEEKERS

The Seekers see themselves as the zenith of evolution in the galaxy. Their presumed superiority fuels an imperialistic nature. Under the guise of benevolence, the Seekers “occupy” newly found alien races for a thousand years ostensibly to advance them so they are fit to join the Galactic Senate. However, their true purpose is to seek out and destroy humans.

KELEHM

Kelehm is a ninth tier Aurelian Garghon, with

enough experience and backing to become the High Senator when Aurelia is admitted into the Galactic Senate. Kelehm is the epitome of

nobility, full of wisdom, strength and pride.

He has spent much of his life studying the

mythology of humans, and has secretly trained himself in human telekinetic arts.
