This are the files that contain your new commands, such as build orders and combat and movement orders. The file for the race that you are playing must be transferred to the machine that is hosting the game, in most cases this machine is a remote BBS. Most BBS machines running the game use a DOOR program that sorts the RST files that you are to download and sends your TRN files that upload to the correct game directory.
If you are playing on a large network that allows file transfers between users, such as AOL or CompuServe, you can attach your TRN file to a Email message and send it to the HOST user. They will download your TRN file and place it in the correct directory for processing by the HOST.EXE program. They will then send you a Email message back with your RST file attached to it so that you can play your next turn.
