It may not play like you think it will.
The entire concept that I was trying to stress is the lack of input when the battle starts.
The CO is only allowed to call in Tactics and nothing else.
I don't know if that really counts as an RTS.
Bug me about my book.

Mhmm I see. Well if battles are real-time, maybe it could be some sort of RTS. However, it would be more the style of older ones like Lord Of The Realms, not Warcraft or Starcraft, where you built a base and could get attacked in the base in the mean time

then again the calc is a hard medium for RTS games, still good idea.

yeah true.

In my stay in the TI community, I saw 2 ASM Starcraft projects (one in late 2003 on MaxCoderz board and another in 2007 on UTI and Omnimaga) and both of them had units stored in the tilemap and moving case by case (grid). Now imagine 100 units moving at once on a tilemap, each of which having to go through an A.I. routine to make them move accross solid map tiles and detect enemies nearby to attack them, and still allow the player to do stuff like sending another group of units elsewhere on the map (I think in the N64 Command and Conquer and Warcraft II, it only kept the last two commands in memory. If you told a 3rd group of unit to go somewhere or do something, the first one would stop moving completly, simply because it was way too much to handle) or build new structures/units/upgrades.

I remember you saying that ARMY was now going to be similar to the 8-bit Starcraft video I put up.  Any luck?

Wow I totally forgot about that O.O (Not ARMY, but what you just said Hot Dog). I wondered how was this progressing but Raylin seemed busy with life stuff, and now I think he's focusing on something else + Phantoom Sactuary. I hope Army and his RPG aren't dead, though. D:

No worries, revived after a long time is better than permanently dead

* HotDog wishes Starcraft Ghost wasn't dead

Yeah same here, although personally I wasn't as much interested by it because it was not a strategy game like the others.

I wish they maybe did something like Starcraft 64 for consoles but without the lag and adding online multiplayer. However, I guess it could never top the computer game because I played SC 64 once and without a mouse it's really hard to micro your units. X.x
