Install Instructions

Extra Info
DARTH's Formations 1.0 is also included in the installation archive (within the game's dir after install) but not installed in the game because I haven't tested them.
Also included some of my tools: the tool I have been using for calculating prices, upkeep for units and FileParser 1.0 for extracting and creating .pak files. I give no support for them anyway.
In the game dir, after install, you will aslo find the vanilla ground types just in case you don't like BDH's, you can install or uninstall the old ones easily using the Self-Extracting archives included in ACBI.
