https://www.dropbox.com/s/z0k500bv0dh7sne/Fight4Flags317.zip?dl=0 will have to paste the link into the address bar, I'm sorry I'm wargaming on a phone. The game is a rework of an old game called miniwars. Its turnbased, and has many many updates, move regulator, fire regulator, anyway. The modules are not great I'd suggest starting module6

So I just tinkered around with this a bit and it's a nice little "wargame construction kit". The graphics could be spruced up and I might be interested in doing that. What could concievably be done is to create a "Commands and Colors: Ancients (or Napoleonics) game which would be cool. You'd need to add a deck of cards though. But most importantly is that you obviously have the talent to program your own wargames which I'm very envious of (we've chatted about that before). If I had half of your skill, I'd be working on converting some of my favorite boardgames for sure!

That would be a very good thing indeed!
Also, GJK why is your post count negative?!? ???

Hi Guys, great news you like it. GJK putting a deck of cards in is to late to alter gameplay, I should of planned a deck early in development, its already set in stone how it plays. Would realy be happy to see you create a game from it though, any questions on its workings please ask as much as you want!

It is a game I designed to be a wargame construction generic kit, I'm so glad you can see this.

We chatted a few of us months back about wartactical, where you suggested I think defensive fire needed, so I popped a MG nest. I found this wadnt what was needed, so it now has defensive opfire for both sides. Its on indieDB.com

I do hope you can make a module?

http://files4download.com/f/Nfn you guys inspired to to press on, fixed a bug in movent, sometime it would not let you move but its fixed now, also made the module menu ingame, so you can now select a module whenever your playing

I've also uploaded to battlegrounds forum http://battlegroundsgames.com/forums/download/file.php?id=1378 so if one is slow try this

Am I to retro? Why is a free ! Wargame so hard to give away to wargamers :) it won't hurt to download a 3mb file? Also how come I can fit a PC and Mac version plus 10 modules in 3mb when most games you buy are 3gb? Anyway most people know I have been programing wargames for a while this one now has been tested and won't be updated , I don't think! Its on free servers so get it while you can

gameleaper · August 22, 2014, 11:22:06 PM

Ok I've finished it now has melee icons on each battle , you can get it here

gameleaper · August 24, 2014, 02:04:22 AM

Message to GJK after considering your thoughts on what games this engine could play, I sat down and came up with another option, an operational game such as battle of the bulg, you would set up all the units as SKI so they ony fire 1 hex, I upgraded the chit select screen to allow any strength, there would just be enough graphics for HQs artilary infantry and armour. Thanks for your thoughts I've also upgraded road movement to allow unlimited movement on road or rail, but the computer only can use cavalry on roads, I may of changed this I will have to check, but GJK you got me motivated thanks, your right the GUI needs sprusing up

https://www.dropbox.com/s/z0k500bv0dh7sne/Fight4Flags317.zip?dl=0 ok got it on dropbox seems to be a good file hosting site, please let me know any problemd

This version 317 has a new targeting system for ranged fire, older versions were targeting further away targets while closer ones were more of a threat, you may not know it but this version makes all older versions pointless

bayonetbrant · August 25, 2014, 06:49:00 AM

Give me a bit of time to come up for air to play some. I'm working on a review right now, so that cuts into my "other" game time. Plus, if you take all the time you guys spend gaming, I spend at least half that trying to keep the content flowing here, so it's not like I'm not busy :-\

gameleaper · August 26, 2014, 03:06:23 AM

https://www.dropbox.com/s/nzdz0epqs7dvaih/Fight4Flags401.zip?dl=0 ok had to update, I errored in the new targeting system and turned off ranged fire. Also I put in edge scrolling. It was a terrible error sorry for old version

Bayonetbrant I'm so sorry to interupt your review, the program had a dredfull error, you may be interested in the windowmode I put in for you to take screenshots for your review, only fixed bug and edge scrolling different from old version
