From the HOMEPAGE:
|
|
XBattle is a concurrent multi-player arcade/strategy game that captures
|
|
the dynamics of a wide range of military situations through numerous
|
|
options. The game board is a matrix of game cells which can be occupied
|
|
by troops of various colors, with troop strength indicated by the size of
|
|
colored markers within a cell. Troops are commanded by clicking the mouse
|
|
near the edge of an occupied cell in the direction that movement is to take
|
|
place. XBattle is concurrent, so that commands are given continuously by
|
|
all players without waiting for turns. A command will be acknowledged by
|
|
the appearance of a command vector, and thereafter, in each update cycle,
|
|
a certain proportion of the troops will move from the source cell to the
|
|
destination cell. In this way, troops can be slowly redistributed via
|
|
supply lines which steadily deliver troops to their endpoints. Troops
|
|
of different colors engage in battle whenever they come to occupy the
|
|
same cell. A wide variety of options are available for configuring troop
|
|
movement, distribution, and production.
