Forum game - Sengoku

#1
Sengoku

The late 14th century in japan, the beginning of the Sengoku period. The old Shogunate has grown weak, and the great clans all strive to replace it. You are a general of your clan and are meeting your rivals on this battlefield. Take command of your troops, outsmart your enemies, show that your clan is the strongest, and the most fit to become the new Shogunate!





This will be a strategic Forum Game, inspired by games like Civilization and Total War. If you want to participate, write Sengoku! and state your clan. Each turn will last for about 48 hours.

The rules, clans and units are listed here:

Sadly, I've jet to create a map where more than 4 players can participate, so the number of players will be limited to 4.

The map you will play on is this:

There will be more units and terrain in the future, with maps focused on different things like mobility, fortification, etc. Also, it should be pretty easy to create different modes, like a boss battle. Additionally, one can copy the principle and use it to create a tactics game for something else. I thought about a Fate tactics game, with each player controlling a few heroes.

I've actually been particularly interested in creating a map-based forum game at some point, so I'm pretty excited to play this one for myself. There's a lot of visual feedback there that just isn't as present in games like Ricochet, so it feels more intuitive in that sense. In future games, map size could also be increased if the game wants to accommodate more players.

Well, there's 8 different kinds of bright colors available on Google Docs when you customize the color. So one could have 8 teams. The terrain could have dimmer colors. And there's a whole lot of customizations I don't have a clue how to use.
