Commander Wars

It is an open source turn-based strategy game that tries to translate the experience of playing the legendary advance wars saga to computers with windows xp. And it achieves its goal with flying colors. This game features gameplay that is almost identical to the gameplay that made the intelligent systems saga so popular. When creating a new game you will find tons of options. Creating a new scenario includes many variables from randomizing the layout of the terrain to choosing the number of opponents controlled by the ai that you'll fight. So you can play either a 1v1 duel against ai or a battle against four generals each represented by a different color. For those who've ever played a game in the advance wars series commander wars will familiarize you with the gameplay. At the beginning of each game your objective remains the same capture the closest buildings which provide you resources. By using these resources you can recruit more and more troops which you can use to capture more land and also attack your enemies. The battles between units also follow the same structure as the advance wars. The success or failure of your attacks depends on several factors, including the position of your units (for example, if they're on higher ground, they'll be more effective) and their type (for example, mortars are especially effective against tanks). If you can keep all this in mind you'll increase your chances of winning. Commander wars is an excellent adaptation of one of the most beloved turn-based strategy sagas. Free and open source it supports mods and features beautiful and colorful graphics openly inspired by the saga.
