Summary : A multi-player strategy game for the X Window System.
Description :
XBattle is a multi-player strategy game for the X Window
System. The game board is a matrix of game cells which can be occupied by
troops of different number and allegiance; troops of different allegiance
fight whenever they occupy the same cell. Play is concurrent. In other
words, there are no "turns" and players take action whenever they want. For
more of a challenge, XBattle allows you to configure numerous game options:
the shape of cells; the terrain; production and loss of troops; using a
horizon to hide enemy troops; and more.
If you want to install the xbattle package, you'll need to have the X Window
System (R4 or better). You'll also need at least two X consoles or
terminals connected to a common network. XBattle will look best on a color
monitor, but color monitors are not required.
