Update #1
Posted 29th Apr 12, by Sketchy  
The level editor is virtually complete now - just need to add flags / HQs.

I've also designed and drawn the only 3 units in the game:

"Bambi" Light Tank
Very fast over any terrain, but lightly armed and armoured, which makes it vulnerable to the...

"Thumper" Heavy Tank
Very heavily armed and armoured, but very slow, which makes it vulnerable to the...

"Hunter" Rocket Artillery
Very long-ranged and capable of firing over the tops of trees, but slow to move (except on roads) & reload and unable to attack at close range, which makes it vulnerable to the "Bambi" Light Tank.

@EE He didn't say online multi-player, sorry I didn't state that before. But yes I meant will there be online multi-player?

Looks fun.

If you ever need help testing it...

HitmanN: I was already planning to message you about testing it, when it gets that far. I thought it might interest you - kind of like a much simpler version of you tank game, but with an overhead viewpoint.
