 To run OpenRA, several files are needed from the original game disks.
-These files are now downloaded and installed by the game,
-so so no explicit action is required.
+A minimal asset pack can also be downloaded and installed by the game.
 
-Dependencies - Make sure you have these installed, or you'll 
-have very strange errors.

 To compile OpenRA, open the OpenRA.sln solution in the main folder,
 or build it from the command-line with MSBuild.
 
+Execute `copy-dependencies.bat' to place the DLLs we conveniently
+bundle for you. They include binaries of:
