My computer game

[General]

Hi! For the last three monts I was developing a computer game and eve dodn't have time to biuld something from my LEGO :)

But finally I made a playable beta version and I'd like to show it here.

In CardWars the map is divided into provinces, the garrison of each consists of 1-7 cards. Attack enemies, and conquer the world!

Download CardWars v.0.5.2.22 (1,8 Mb)

Players: 2 - 9.

Multiplayer: hotseat.

System requirements: 256 Mb, 500 MHz, OS Windows, 800x600

Controls

Left click - select a province.

Right click on the adjacent province - attack it or move garrison there

Double click - cards arrangement mode

Right click - clear selection

Button in the top left corner - next turn

Wheel click - hide/show garrisons

Detailed rules and scenarios descriptions

Please, share your opinions.

P.S. Now I'm at my aunt's in Vilnius and I bought 7635 4WD with Horse Trailer for only $18,21 :)

I've just had a quick look at it, haven't played it.

Looks like Risk and Dicewars, did you base it on any of those games?

[General]

Indeed! DiceWars game was one of the sources of inspiration. But I applied card rules to battles, thus lowering the role of sheer luck. (Yes, I know that in DiceWars a skilled player works out the streategy and wins even with bad random, but in CardWars we have more space for strategy and taсtics)

Modification to the CWNRGP2 rules:

I decided to add "The fastest defeat" nomination. So, even if you lost to AI in the tournament, send your replay to me.

Te winner in this nomination will be the player, who made AI to capture Prussia as fast as possible

I've been tolerating this for a while, but if you're going to keep bumping this off-topic conversion and triple posting while doing so then I'm going to have to close it.
