Empire Tactics

This game was made in a single weekend for Ludum Dare 46 (in April 2020 ) with the theme of "Keep it alive" https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/46/empire-tactics

This game is sort of compatible with mobile devices, but it's not possible to back out of a mission, you have to reload the page. Normally the cursor would highlight tiles, but on mobile this is absent.


Rally the forces of (RED) empire to crush the evil (BLUE) empire!

This is a turn based strategy board game on a hex based grid, it features 5 missions that take only a couple minutes to play. You can toggle AI for both players with the F1/2 keys for a bit novelty, though the missions are designed to be challenging for the red player primarily.

Important! Some quick notes about the units:

There are 4 types, ranging from smallest to largest: (we didn’t have the time to add this information to the interface)

-Swarm (speed 4, attack 1, range 1, shield 4) Fast

-Fighter (speed 2, attack 3, range 2, shield 7) Well-rounded

-Beast (speed 3, attack 4, range 3, shields 2) Fragile but devastating

-Tank (speed 1, attack 1, range 1, shields 10) Built to soak up damage

Their stats are multiplied by the amount of units in a stack, similar to heroes of might and magic (or king’s bounty originally). No magic here though. Attack reduces shields 1 to 1, the current value isn’t displayed, sorry.

The order in which units move depend on their move stat also.
