How to Play GunHed: The New Battle
Quick start
Press START, choose NEW GAME or CONTINUE, select the player count and name each team. Place the opening machines with the D-pad and A. On a regional map, select a flashing unit with A, move the cursor to its destination and press A again; B cancels before movement. Use factories to repair 10 damage per turn and supply bases to refill energy before seeking fights. When an enemy is contacted, rebalance EXP rather than simply raising every statistic, choose a control mode, then press START. SEMI is a useful introduction because the computer drives while you aim with the D-pad, select a weapon with B and fire with A. Save from the B-button map window before stopping.
Controls
General: D-pad moves the cursor or robot; A confirms or attacks; B cancels or selects a weapon. World map: choose deployment squares with the D-pad and A; place the cursor on a flashing robot and press B to enter its regional map. Regional map: A selects a unit and confirms its destination; B cancels before movement. With no move selected, B opens the command window; use the D-pad and A for Map, Sub, Pass Turn, Save or Items. Programming: Up/Down selects a statistic and Left/Right reallocates EXP; START begins combat. Semi: D-pad aims, B selects weapon, A attacks. Manual: D-pad moves, B selects weapon, A attacks. Auto needs no battle input.
GunHed: The New Battle — About this game
GunHed: The New Battle is a Famicom strategy game set in 2040 after the live-action film. One to four teams enter island 8JO in search of Texmexium and manoeuvre several HED types across turn-based regional maps towards the Mother Tower. Factories repair damage, supply bases refill energy, and unexplored squares may yield robot parts, weapons or traps. Contact with an opposing machine opens a real-time battle after the player redistributes experience among intelligence, turning, armour, speed, jump, charge and detection. Auto delegates everything, Semi leaves movement to the computer but gives the player aiming and weapons, and Manual gives full control. Victors take the loser's fuel, ammunition, items and parts; complete part sets build replacement units. It supports one-player CPU matches and pass-the-controller play for up to four, with battery-backed saving.
