	xtank != battlezone

	I have xtank and enjoy it!  But alas it is not battlezone.

	The version of battlezone I saw had very few options.  All tanks
were the same, and the views were 3D with the only obstacles being
pyramids and robot tanks.  However it was still quite enjoyable to play.

	So if any one out there knows were the code for this game
exists, let me know.
