I.  General Moves

    All of the following moves can be executed by any of the characters.  The
strength or speed may vary from character to character, but the controls are
the same.

    Here is the layout of the joystick and buttons, with the names that I will
use for each:

                                      High Punch  High Kick
         BU   <U>p     FU               Ŀ       Ŀ
           \   /\   /                   1         3 
             \    /                     Block 
               \/                            Ŀ
  <B>ack   <>  <F>orward              5 
               /\                            
             /    \                    Ŀ       Ŀ
           /   \/   \                   2         4 
         BD   <D>own  FD                       
                                      Low Punch   Low Kick


(NOTE:  F & B are based on the character is to the left (facing right).  If
          the character is to the right (facing left), F & B is reversed)

U means just hit the button; FU, FB means do either for similar effects;
<FD-5> means hit the keys at the same time; and F-F-B-B-B-1 means all moves
are done one at a time.  Things like this B--D--F means go smoothly from the
first to the last, through the middle, hitting all points in between (semi-
circle) or F--D--B--U--F for complete circle.  <5>-B-F means to hold down the
key in <> and do the rest of the motions one-by-one.

That is everything that I know.  There are other "double" moves that are not
mentioned.  Remember this:  A person can teach you everything you know about
the game, but he will NEVER tell you everything that he knows about the game.
I myself have much to learn.  Enjoy the info I gave you in this file.
