Sid Meier's ALPHA CENTAURI Alpha Centauri User-Configurable Rules Copyright (c) 1997, 1998 by Firaxis Games, Inc. ALPHA CENTAURI reads the rules of the game from this file at startup. Feel free, at your own risk, to experiment with editing this file. We recommend you make a backup copy of the original. If you are building a scenario and need custom rules, copy this file into a subdirectory with your scenario file before editing. Files in the same subdirectory as a scenario file automatically take precedence over files in the main game directory.
