| 2139 | 2 | 2001-12-14 13:22:48 | We're going to take the server down around 12:30PM CST on Saturday, 12/15 to upgrade the operating system and generally tidy things up. Hopefully downtime will just be a few hours. <p> <b>Update:</b> It was more than a few hours, but we're back up on a freshly installed box running <a href="http://debian.org">Debian Woody</a> and all set for some nice changes in the near future. <p> No, I don't think it's time for new poll.

Two players command their units on a map of hexagons, trying to accomplish mission objectives ranging from defending important locations to simply destroying all enemy forces. Damaged units may be repaired or replaced by new recruits, while victorious squadrons will improve their abilities so they will be even more difficult to beat next time.</p> <p>Currently, the game can only be played by two human adversaries in hot-seat mode or via e-mail. There is no AI player code yet.</p> <p>The included editor can be used to create your own custom battlefields.</p> | Crimson Fields 0.1.6 | new | |
