Hi. I am a huge RTS game fan. I especially love Homeworld 2 & A Bridge Too Far (ABTF). I am looking to see if there might be a few folks that would want to team up and maybe get a cool flash game going.
I recently walked into a Games Workshop and played my first game of Warhammer 40k. I really liked it because a) it was a board game, b) it was a dice-based strategy game and c) I like the realism envolved in calculating distances and troop attributes.
I think it would really be cool to incorporate Warhammer 40k into a top-down (aka. bird’s eye view) map and use some of the troop attribute calculations along with some means of getting the dice play feature in there. (I am trying get this down as the thoughts come to me, so pardon me if this comes out like mush)
I really like HW2’s HUD to show you distances. Same with ABTF.
Any takers on this. Please realize this would be just for fun. If anything just shoot me some of your thoughts and ideas.
Enclosed I included a RangeFinder system that I worked on while doing a map project. Click the box to see if you can move it. If it is green then fine, if red it is out of its range.
