X[3.7] Note
It was a normal monday... well... school pissed me off and a girl acted
pretty weird (WTF do you mean I'm ignoring you?... Damn you Yvonne! Nah...
j/k... I like you :D). Except this 2 problems everything was fine...
So I was at a friends place (SoepKips place) and he told me he had the
game Hooligans. Another friend of me (Maverick) told me the game was
released that morning. Wow! That game was pretty hyped here in the
Netherlands, so I lend the game of SoepKip and installed it.
And ofcourse, I also wrote a guide on Hooligans: Storm over Europe.
Ow BTW Maverick, do you now believe I have the game ;)

[1.2] About Hooligans
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hooligans is probably the most original game of 2002! So what's so
special about it? The combination hooligans and beer! Your mission is
simple: steal some moeny, get some beer, hire new hooligans and trash the
place!
The graphics are a little simple. Is this game from 1996 or what? The
graphics are bad, but the gameplay is very good!
You probably can't find the game in the stores. Nobody wants to sell it!
If you want to get the game, you'll have to buy it on
www.hooligan-thegame.com...

magazines:
Power Unlimited (#11, Nov 2001, preview) - Hooligans is a very nice RTS
from Dutch developers. With good humour and a dope soundtrack. A with
with balls for gamers with balls.
Power Unlimited (#2, Feb 2002, review) - Don't try this at home, kids!
Hooligans is a funny game, but act normal. If you do, nothing will be
wrong and the Netherlands can sleep again. (68%)
My favourite gamesmagazine (not that it's a good one, but it's the best
one in the Netherlands) told this game would rock. But ofcourse, I only
believe it when I see it with my own eyes. So here's my review:
Graphics - 70%
It isn't 1996 anymore! There's nothing wrong with 2D, but it all look a
little bit cheap. The characters move like planks and the animation
sucks! C'mon!
Music - 90%
A kick-ass sountrack! If you think the soundtrack is good, wait until you
heard the music when the game is loading! Parodies on We are the
Champions etc. In stead of singing "We are the Champions!", they sing
"We are still loading!" etc. Very funny stuff. When I first heard it, I
couldn't stop laughing! I hoped the loading took forever. It didn't ;)
The voices are pretty smooth too! A very I'm-in-a-bad-mood voice. The
in-game voices are always the same. If the voices weren't the same,
the music would get a 100% :D
Gameplay - 90%
An easy interface, but sometimes the menus are in the way. You can't see
the map with those menus. It's a good think you can hide these.
Controls - 90%
Left and right mouse button and sometimes the keyboard. What else do I
have to say?
Story - 95%
Pretty original. You control a bunch of hooligans we tell you about their
past. Before a mission, another movie is shown, so you understand the
story a little better. And when you played all the misions, you fully
understand why these people are hooligans ;)
Replay - 90%
I think you can play this game over and over again. It's just cool to
trash stuff like this, fight with other hooligans, rob shops etc. I
think this game will never bore you.
Overall - 87%
The best RTS around at the moment. Forget Commandos II! That game is for
people who are afraid to trash things. When you're not afraid to trash
things, check this game! You'll love it!

[3.1] The Netherlands - Going Dutch
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Introduction: The first match of the season! A quick tutorial guide will
teach you the basics of leading your troops. After this it's time to do
some damage...
TO SKIP THE TUTORIAL, PRESS F8 DURING THE GAME.
Mission: You there?.. It is the beginning of the season and this mission
is quite simple. Get to the stadium and watch the game. Now, if you need
money, you can trash and loot shops and you can get totally wankered on
beer at the nearest pub, know what I mean?
The cops have got a riot squad waiting for you geezers, but nothing to
het worried about, is it? There are two entrances to the stadium and a
small firm is waiting for your arrival.
Get one leader and 10 men into the stadium.
[ ] Get at least 1 leader and 10 of your men into the stadium
How: *Allright, mates, listen up. I have't got a lot of time for this.
Here's the basics to keep your men in and out of control. Follow my
instructions carefully, cause after this, you're on your own!*
Note: When a text is between *'s, it's a message on the screen... You
know what I mean? ;)
*Let's start with some basic selection, move and attack command.
Leftclicking selects and shows you the info of all relevant objects on
the screen and rightclicking is for actions. Your leader can be quickly
selected by leftclicking his icon in the topleft of the screen. Now
select any unit of your team by leftclicking him in the field.*
Now do what that guys tells you to do! Select a unit.
*You'll see his stats below in the panel. Now rightclick anywhere on the
ground to have your unit move over there.*
Move your unit somewhere. Anywhere is fine, but keep him close to your
team. And be sure not to walk to the cops!
*Right then, I suppose you wanna know how to break stuff hey? Select the
whole group by dragging a rectangle around them with your left mouse
button. Then rightclick and hold the button on one of the benches near
the fountain. You'll see some buttons pop-up. Release your mouse over the
fist icon and order your men to trash this object!*
Trash one of the benches you see near the fountain with your group.
*Nice, but we need some cash... have your men loot one of the shops to
your right by using the pop-up menu. This time we want the cash inside,
so select the Eruo icon instead.*
Loot the left shop on the right (or any shop on the right).
*Wicked! Hope the police didn't hear the alamr though... He. You know
what I mean. Because you'll always want the money out of a shop, the
default command for shops is looting. You can see the cursor change to a
loot cursor while over a shop, displaying the cash inside. To use the
default command, just rightclick without holding the button. Holding the
shift will queue your command. Now hold down shift and rightclick two
more shops. Your men will loot the second shop after they're done with
the first! Do it!*
Loot the other THREE shops. Yeah... I know the guy tells you to loot 2
shops, but some extra cash is always welcome, isn't it? :D
*Great! Your cash total is displayed above the minimap. Now you can buy
some beer. Right click on the pub to enter it, either using the default
command or the pop-up menu.*
Your men are probably looting the third shop. When they're finished,
enter the pub.
*The pub is yours. Your team logo is displayed on the ground in front
of it. You can control the pub by clicking on the house icon in the
panel. Go right ahead.*
Click the house icon (looks like a house with a glass of beer inside).
*Look at the panel on the right side, you can give rounds of beer for
everyone in the pub. Now, let's be real generous. Move the slider until
it displays the amount you want to spend on a round. Then click the bell
to buy the beer.*
Move the slider all the way to the right and ring the bell.
*By buying rounds, some supporters will join you and help you fight.
Watch it though, your units inside can get very drink and out of
control.*
*New hardcore units can join your gang... For a reasonable sum of
pocketmoney of course. Leftclick the unit icons in the panel to see its
price and statistics. Check them out and press the recuit button to have
one join you. He will exit the pub and is at your command.*
Buy as much as hardcore units as possible.
*Sorted. Now get those wankers out of the pub and join your ranks! Go
back to the pub's info screen by pressing the shop-info button below the
beerslider. Here you can use the select-all button to select all units
inside the pub. Once selected, have them leave by clicking on the ground
somewhere outside the pub.*
Move all your units (including the new) outside the pub somewhere.
*That's right, moving on to the leader commands. You can assign units to
a leader to act as a group. To do so, select the leader and a bunch of
hardcore units and rightclick on the leader, using the default command
or the center pop-up icon.*
What are you thinking? Do what he says you to do!
*The geezers that you can't select are normal supporters, they joined
you after you bought them a round. You can't control them but they will
help you fight when motivated enough.*
*OK, to get them in the right mood, have at least one leader nearby to
start a chant to raise their loyalty. Be sure to have a leader in your
selection and rightclick and hold the button on any unit in your
selection. Release the mouse above the chant icon.*
Chant your men...
*Lovely! Looks like they're having a ball! Remember, to check a
supporter's loyalty or any other statistics of any unit or building,
leftclick it to see its info in the panel.*
Wait until the train is arrived.
*I see some reinforcements have arrived by train. It's time for the more
advanced selections and commands. You can select a leader and his group
by leftclicking his icon in the topleft of the screen or by pressing the
corresponding number on your keyboard. Rightclicking a top-icon or
pressing its number twice will center the view on it. Now select the
second leader.*
Select the second leader. He's waiting in fron of "Station Noord".
*Let's assign some units to him. Add some hardcore units to the current
selection by holding shift and selecting them in the field. You can
deselect them by holding control, either in the field or the panel. Now,
once you have a selection with the second leader and some units make it a
group by using alt and pressing 2.*
Create a second group.
*That's it, my son! You can make your units run by holding control while
you give the move command. Try it and move some units near the pile of
bricks, right of the fountain.*
Let the units run to the pile of bricks near the fountain.
*When your units are in the vicinity of a pile of bricks, you can order
them to lob a few bricks at a desired target. Just use the pop-up menu
on any target and select the brick icon.*
Throw some bricks.
*Rigt, that could come in handy some time... On some objects you can
issue special commando with your selection. Rightclick and hold the pile
of bricks and use the turret icon. This will command your selection to
stay and defend the area against any incoming threats...*
Use the turret-icon on the pile of bricks.
*Okay, you're on your own now! You don't need an ol-geezer like me to
help anymore. Just get to the staidum in time for the match! You don't
want to miss that now, do ya? Good luck...*
Hehe... let's kick some serious ass!
On the right side of the map, you'll see some cops. And they have more
cops than you have units, so we have to find another way... Just look to
the left! You'll see some bricks near the parking lot. Throw these at
the enemy units.
Wait until the new gang is arrived an kill them. When you're finished
with these guys, move to the stadium. See that big pile of bricks? Just
throw them at the other units behind the gates.
When everyone is killed, some new units will exit the stadium. Once you
killed them, you can finally enter the stadium...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[3.2] France - Frenzy in France
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Introduction: Your arrival in France has stirred up the attention of the
opposing hooligans. They must be up to something...
Mission: Still pissed? This is France but there is a slight problem. Now,
besides the fact that they drink wine here instead of beer, some of the
geezers have been arrested by the filth. Your team's players bus is on
its way but the opposing firm is rioting on the streets and around the
hotel your players are staying in.
Now, if you don't watch out your team might get scared and not sleep too
well. If that happens tomorrow match will be as good as lost, make sure
the players bus gets to the hotel unharmed.
Tidy man, real tidy.
[ ] Make sure the players bus arrives safely at the hotel
How: You'll begin in the lower right corner of the screen. First loot the
houses on the left. You can rob two houses. After you did this, walk
to the streets.
You can buy weapons if you want, although I think you don't really need
them at the moment. You can also wait and hire more units... The choice
is up to you (I didn't buy weapons).
Walk to the left and loot every shop and house on your way. Somewhere on
the left of the map is a square shaped block of houses. Loot all the
houses and enter the pub that's inside the square. Hire some men if you
want (and you probably want).
You'll get some ravers when you try to enter the pub.
The men on the top of the map will be free about now. You can move them.
Don't attack the enemy on the left, because the cops will kill you in
no time. Attack the enemy in the lower right corner of the screen with
all your men.
Use Bulch to move the containers away from the street. If Bulch is
killed, you can hire him in the pub you entered a few minutes ago. This
will cost you 500 euro. If you don't have the money, you can loot some
shops or houses to get the money. You can only hire one Bulch at the
time.
After a while, the bus will arive. Move all your men to the bus to
protect it until it reached the hotel. If the bus doesn't move, somebody
is in the way. Either someone of your men or one of the enemy.
When the bus reaches the left side of the screen, some enemies will
exit the houses (on the outside of the square). Kill them and wait until
the bus reached the hotel.
Quite a hard mission, wasn't it? It's getting much harder in the next
missions :D
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[3.3] United Kingdom - Contained in England
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Introduction: A large part of your firm is being held at a containment
area at the ferry terminal. Your group took another route, so let's
regroup and take the next train out of there.
Mission: God save the Queen... and our firm! This is England. Another
tempting problem to be solved by you. You travelled seperately from the
rest, just as a precaution. And it payed off for sure. Now, the cops
arrested the first group of your men just as they got off the ferry.
The second lot on the ferry is gonna get nicked as well, you have to put
a stop to this madness. You'll be dropped off at the entrance and you'll
have a small crew with you. I don't know how, but free your ringleaders
and make it to the trainstation in town.
This train is your only way to get out of here without getting nicked!
Do it man!
[ ] Free the contained group
[ ] Destroy the pub on the square (you'll get it later)
[ ] Get both leaders into the train station alive
How: When the mission begins, you men will leave the car. Select them and
enter the car again. Drive down the 3 cops you find to the left. Exit
the car and loot the 4 shops for some money.
Drive the car to the bottum of the map, so you drive past the warehouses
below. A small gang will walk around. Wait until the gang walks to the
car and splat them! If you drive smart, you can kill the whole gang!
Leave the car when the gang is finished. When the gang isn't finished,
your car will be trashed. Kill the gang with your bare hands. ;)
To the left some men of you will arive. Look a little up. Lotsa bricks!
Let the men that just arrived use these bricks to throw to whatever they
want to throw to (use the turret-icon).
The men you got in the beginning of the mission should enter the pub.
Hire Bulch at least one time. Exit the pub. A little to the right, Bulch
tell you he can push that gate. Let him do this. Walk to the left. To the
left of the shops is another gate. Let Bluch push that one too! Enter the
car and help your troops that are fighting the big gang in the square.
Let Bulch move the small container to free the men that are trapped. Let
these men also help your fighting men.
When the big gang is dead, let the 2 leaders enter the train station. The
rest of your men should destroy and loot the pub.
Pretty easy mission :D
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[3.4] United Kingdom - City Violence
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Introduction: Times have changed...
Last year you lost the battle here, now this year make 'em pay for that.
Mission: Revenge.. Is a sweet thing, ain't it? Last year they might have
kicked your ass, but this year you are here to settle. The city is
unaware that your firm is here in numbers. They annihilated your manor
last year. You need payback!
destroy the gasstation!.. Destroy the villa!.. Smash up that pub next to
the police station and make sure you posses two pubs on the central
square. Your revenge will be complete when you exceed the 4 million Euro
mark in damages to the town.
[ ] Get at least 4.000.000 Euro in damages to the town
[ ] Destroy the gasstation
[ ] Destroy the villa on both sides
[ ] Destroy the pub next to the police station
[ ] Make sure you take over the two pubs on the main square
How: A cool mission...
First loot some houses. This will raise the damage to the town, and it
will also give you some extra cash. Enter the pub and hire some units.
Now just walk around in town and trash the place! ;)
Sometimes, after you broke in, some men of the other team will appear.
You can easily finish them off when you've got enough men.
After a while, the cops will come and clear the town.
If someone is low on health, he can fuck as hooker to heal. I never knew
it's helps to fuck a hooker when you're wounded. Maybe I should try it
someday too ;)
First, trash for 4.000.000 Euro, so you have lotse money. Take over the
pub next to the police station and hire some new units. Now enter the
weaponstore and buy some weapons (be sure to buy granates for the
ravers).
Attack the big gang in the sqaure with grenates to kill the most off
them. Finish the rest with your men. Take over the 2 pubs here and loot
the houses in the sqaure. Hire some new units and attack the villa.
Inside the villa lives a man with a shotgun, so watch out!
Finally, attack the gasstation. Another man with a shotgun lives here,
which is stronger than the man of the villa. Finish him and trash the
gasstation to finish the mission.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[3.5] The Netherlands - Flower Dope
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Introduction: Them Dutchies know home to run a farm! Aah, there's nothing
like the smell of "flowers" in the morning!
Mission: Drugs are bad for you, right? Well, since you're in Holland,
let's do the Dutch government a favor. On the way back from an away
game you got some info about a drugfarm of this big shot Dutch firm.
It was on route, so what the hell, why not pay them a visit eh? Destroy
the drugs farm and get away with your bus.
A nice and easy in and out job...
[ ] Destroy the drugsfarm by trashing at least 16 of the glasshouses
[ ] Make sure the bus doesn't get thrashed
[ ] Make a clean getaway with your bus
How: A pretty hard mission if you ask me...
First, move the units to the path below. On the left side of the map,
Bulch can move away the fence. You'll enter a field with a trailer. The
trailer is a whorehouse, so you can heal your men and hire hookers here.
Move to the right side of the map (stay on the road) and attack the
glasshouses. When the enemy comes after you, run into the trailer. The
pimp will shoot anybody who tries to attack his trailer (your enemy
this time).
Let your men rest inside the trailer and move out 2 rats. Let the rats
trash glasshouses until you trashed enough. When you did, a bus will
arive in about 1 minute. Move all your men to the place you started the
mission. When the bus arrives, let somebody enter the bus to complete
this mission.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[3.6] Germany - Stronghold in Germany
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Introduction: 4-0!
Your team lost the match 4-0! The only thing that can ease that pain is
a whole lotta beer and brawling!
Mission: Viva Deutschland! Another round for your team in the Euroleague
Championships. You lost the game 4-0 to those bastards! You decided to
leave the stadium before the end of the game and relieve your innermost
feelings.
Destroy two pubs on the central sqaure and get away with a team to the
north. Remember! You left before the end of the game, so you gonna have
some time before their firm celebrates it's victory in town.
[ ] Destroy two pubs on the central sqaure
[ ] Get away with the team to the north with at least 20 of your men
How: In the beginning, I was almost sure this one was impossible ;)
