[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.
