This crack intro from the German group Action is catalogued on CSDb as release #59429, dated 25 June 1991. Jihad coded the intro, with two SID tunes — "To Be Alone" by A-Man (Steven Diemer) and "Melodious" by GT (Geir Tjelta) — both preserved in the HVSC. Orc provided the graphics, Apollyon designed the charset, and Grim Reaper handled the NTSC fix — a six-person production team reflecting serious ambition. Action was founded in February 1989 and positioned itself as one of Germany's fastest cracking crews. Doc Snyder's page confirms Jihad as coder and Orc as artist for this specific intro, crediting Predator for music — an alternate handle for Geir Tjelta. This is one of several ranked Action intros, alongside the higher-placed #56 Action Intro #3 and #327 Action Intro #5.
