I found a rather interesting online turn based strategy game. It's good, but suffers from an absolutely terrible name.

However, I still recommend you all play it.

http://weewar.com/

You need an email to sign up. I recommend using a real email address, not mailinator.

I'll challenge any of you to a round. So get registered.


EDIT:
It's basically advance wars.

Lack of tutorial pissed me off too.

Invite me to a game (I'm SquashMonster) there and I'll show you the ropes. Pick a medium to small-sized map.

Ok did but...Is this one of those "Take turn; sends email, wait for other person to get email; opponent takes turn; sends email" bullshit?
I thought these games died out with WebTV...

Sorta. You can play it that way if you really want.

If you're both on at the same time though, it'll auto-refresh itself and you can play at something resembling a reasonable pace.


And the ingame chat is being fucking stupid, so here's the minitutorial:

How to Stuff:
- To move: Click a unit, wait for the movement grid to show up, click a spot, wait for the confirm grid to show up, click the spot again. You'll know said grids when you see them.
- To attack with artillery: Click a unit, wait for the movement grid to show up, find an enemy unit with a red hexagon around them, click that spot. Wait for the confirm grid to show up and click the spot again.
- To attack with anything else: Move a unit next to an enemy, and click an enemy unit with a red hexagon around it instead of clicking yourself to confirm.
- To capture a base: Move any infantry onto a base the way I told you to move. Wait two turns. (You can kill infantry while it's capturing, which stops it)
- To move infantry onto a base without capture: Instead of confirming by hitting the hex again, hit "do nothing" in the top right corner.
- To build a unit: Click a base and pick a unit to build. Your economy is in the upper left.
- To repair a unit: Don't move a unit and hit the repair button in the upper left.
- To check things: Mouse over a unit to get its stats. That's attack power vs infantry, attack power vs vehicles, and defence power. Mouse over terrain to get its stats. You get the bonuses of the terrain you are standing on. That's attack power for infantry, attack power for vehicles, defence /for/ infantry, and defence /for/ vehicles. Check out the woods. A tank in the plains that attacks a tank in the woods will pwn it. An infantry in the plains that attacks an infantry in the woods will get pwned.

Unit Stuffs:
- Basic Infantry: Sucks, but nowhere near as much as you think it sucks. They're quite fast. Shockingly good against artillery.
- Heavy Infantry: Exactly the same as basic infantry, but slower and better against vehicles.
- Raider: Super fast. Good against infantry. Pwn against artillery (because they go fast enough to never be in range).
- Tank: Hardish to kill, fairly strong. Heavy infantry, artillery, and bigger tanks still will beat it.
- Heavy Tank: Very hard to kill, very strong. Their cost worth of heavy infantry will kill it, but that's hard to do. Heavy artillery is a better counter.
- Artillery: Cannot attack adjacent enemies. Can attack enemies 2 or 3 space away. Cannot move and attack. Does fairly good damage against whatever it hits. Dies if something hits it.
- Heavy Artillery: Cannot attack adjacent enemies or enemies 2 squares away. Can attack 3 or 4 squares away. Cannot move and attack. Does great damage against everything. Dies if something hits it.

Seems rather similar to advance wars then.



I play sometime, but with someone from this board. I'm not much for playing against random guys.

Agreed. That's why I'm trying to get people to play from here.

We should use this thread to make matches. I'll play against anyone who invites me as long as I have an open game slot. My name on there is still SquashMonster. I recommend you all post your names so you can challenge eachother and whatnot.
