The game, to a degree, will be somewhat CnCish (to those who've hever played any of the Command and Conquer games). You are able/will be able to buy soldiers of different classes (come out of tents), vehicles and such, and you start with a central bases. However, this is more rightly called a Factory as all it is is used to build your base.
Once the factory is destroyed, you're basically screwed, but I may make it buildable some how in the future. In addition, the game will feature something that I have yet to see in any BYOND RTS game, and that's a block building ability. To those who have played any Command and Conquer game, you're familiar with this. When you want to build something, blocks (spanding the width of the structure) will be placed on the map, you move them around to find a nice location to build something. Though the blocks are nomrally blue, they can turn red, and that means that you cannot build in that spot, as illustrated below:
The game will essentially take place in a semi-modern world with modern-like warfare, but mostly be fougth in forests and the like (such as during the Vietnam war), or at least in the early version when I'm still testing a lot.
If all goes as planned, this game will probably set the BYOND standard, as I have a lot of innovations I plan to put forth in to this game (or at least for the BYOND system). Here's a few more screen shots:
I love making money, so I built three Oil Dereks to get some.
A bunch of troops around my base should be enough defense.....
....Okay one more troop wouldn't hurt.
