S e c t i o n ( 1 ) - STORY -
===============================
It was autumn , 1789 . Amakusa and Mizuki were destroyed . However ,
there were many cases of the disappearance of unborn babies in various
places , and a rumour of a mysterious puppeteer has been going around .
The swordsmen have a feeling that an extrodinary event never experienced
before would take place .
Yes , at last the worst in the world of the devils has started working !
Story From Gunsmith's FAQ

S e c t i o n ( 3 ) - Game Systems -
========================================
- - Bust and Slash - -
There are two types modes for a player to choose in the game . One is
called Slash and the other is called Bust . Each mode has it own sets of
moves . There are no such thing as which mode is better it just depends
on which sets of moves you like best or you are better of with .
- - Rage Gauge Bar - -
This is a gauge just below your life meter . Whenever you do a special move or
get hit it will increase your rage bar by a bit and when your gauge is fully
charged you will be able to perform a power up version of your special move or
do your DM ( desperate move ) . Beside doing those things , you will also be
able to do the " Final Blow " by pressing the buttons BCD or ABC together and
once upon hitting your opponent it will do mega damage depending on how much
life you have left , the lesser your life meter is the more damage the " Final
Blow " will be .
- - Stamina Bar - -
This is a bar at the corner of the screen , the more you jump or attack your
opponent your stamina bar will decrease . Once all the the stamina has been
used up your Character will become tired or stun . So attack wisely .
- - Ultimate Combo - -
The ultimate combo are activated by pressing the buttons CD together , you will
be able to do a cotinuous combo attack on your opponent by pressing A 5 times
and then press B all way until your character does the finishing move or you can
press A all the way . The same thing goes to the B button . You can either press
B 5 times then A all the way till you character does the finishing move or B all
the way . However , the CD attack must hit your opponent . The ultimate combo
can be halted but under what circumstances it can be stopped i am not very sure .
One more thing if you use the Ultimate Combo , it will also deduct your stamina
bar .

S e c t i o n ( 5 ) - Codes -
===============================
====================
E a s y M o d e
====================
When you are chosing the Bust an Slash mode before the battle , hold start before
selecting them with A or B .
========================
K u r o k o C o d e
========================
While selecting your favourite character , hold CD then press A , when the screen
for selecting the Bust and Slash mode appears , hold C then press A or B .
note : this code only works in VS not against the CPU .
==================================
S h a d o w l e s s T h r o w
==================================
This move only works for Hanzo Hatori , this is actually a bug in the game . When
Hanzo's power bar is full do the shuriken throw move and make sure it hits your
opponent . Then immediately do hcf + C if you see him doing the mutlipart then you
have suceeded and you can finish doing the whole set of mutlipart .
