[pbmserv-dev] Stratego variant (sort of)
My brother just hauled out his copy of the game The
Generals. I don't know the year, but it's probably
early 80s. It's a Stratego rip-off, but instead of
revealing your pieces when you attack, you put them on
little sensors and it says who won.
The game has a different feel than stratego, because
there are no bombs and the flag can move. The 21
pieces range from privates up through 5-star generals.
At the top of the chain are 2 agents, which can kill
anything but privates.
By itself, Generals would make a good server game.
You could also just make a hidden Stratego variant
where only the results of a battle are listed, not the
value of the pieces.
