Hexagon strategy game based in the ancient era.

A clever hexagon strategy game based in the ancient era. Games are played only in hot-seat with an opponent player and last about 45 minutes each. Lots of fun if you want to duel it out and test your strategy skills against friends.

The game is also entirely open-source if you wish to make personal modifications such as adding new maps, new units and more!

Features:

- 5 maps

- Ability to choose your faction color and name

- Great tracks to listen to while playing (mutable)

- 10 unique units, all with a strategic purpose

Rules:

How to win:

Destroy the other faction's castle.

Movement:

Every movable unit has at least 1 move points per turn. Certain tiles (such as forests, hills, cemeteries, ruins, etc) cause the unit to use 2 move points and therefore make the unit move faster.

Finishing a turn by moving onto a poison or lava tile cause your unit to lose health. Finishing on an oasis or hell grass tile makes your unit gain health.

Food:

Food is used in unit production. Castles provide a base 1 food per turn. Building farms (using a worker) increases food output depending on what tile they are built on. Building on wheat or hell grass tiles are the most profitable.

Units:

- Horseman: Can move up to 3 hexes per turn. Effective against swordsman.

- Worker: Unit that can build towers and farms. Any attack kills it instantly.

- Archer: Weaker unit that can attack at a range of 2 hexes, dealing 2 damage.

- Swordsman: Unit that has a special "shield" mode that protects it from attacks. Effective against phalanx.

- Phalanx: Unit that has a "berzerker" mode that instantly kills units. Effective against horseman.

- Catapult: Low health unit that deals 4 damage to farms, villages and towers.

- Priest: Support unit that can heal other units. Can also convert enemy units to your faction.

- Beast: Unit with lots of health and deals 4 damage to everything. Can also blitz every 3 turns. Expensive though and is slow.

- Tower: Build by workers. Have lots of health and can shoot back at enemies at range.

Villages also have an attack at range.

That is basically the game. Enjoy!
