I looked at the Script.txt file and found an entry:

#WORLDORBIT
#xs 400
#caption SELECT PLANETARY ORBIT
#button Random
#x -5
#y -5
#itemlist
100 million miles (cool planet)
90 million miles (average planet)
80 million miles (warm planet)

Has anyone seen this selection screen? Here are is
another selection that I have never seen:

#GENDER
#xs 440
#caption Indicate Your Gender
#x -5
#y -5
#itemlist
Male
Female

I have also seen this (I havent seen it the game, but
it could have appeared):

#WAR
#xs 400
#caption Netflash!
War between the $FACTION0 and the $FACTION1!

War? Shouldnt that be Vendetta?

#HYPERSTIM
#xs 400
#caption Operations Director
Hyperstimulants activated! Unit's movement rate doubled until end of
turn. Unit can opt to use "skip" (space bar) command to expend
hyperstimulants and repair all damage.

#POLYMER
#xs 400
#caption Operations Director
Polymer adhesives placed! Movement into/through this area impeded.

Seems to be special abilities never implented.

#VOICE
#xs 400
#caption Operations Director
Subliminal Coercion activated! Select action:

Force target to attack.
Force target to retreat.

*What* is this?

In addition, could someone please explain me what they do with the Openingm.mp3 in the /voices directory?

There are lot of things not used (or used, but then cut out). Check the graphics in unit.pcx (I think that's the name).

And about that special abilities, I can bet that they'll appear in AlienCrossfire.
