Start with the original system reqs, note that Allegiance has been improved since and reqs are a little higher. Perhaps post recommended specs (optional) but mostly just make it clear how little you need to play Allegiance (non-powerful computer, windows, internet connection). Mention .NET framework maybe.

Discuss Joystick here. Point out that it isn't a requirement and that a lot prefer mouse over joystick. Using a keyboard for flight is not recommended.
