Hello, Friends!
While I rest, I decided to start developing a skyrmish-wargame based on the “steel warriors” motive. The game is a tactical battle of two 4x4 special forces. Each unit has 4 operatives of a certain role:
1. An assault fighter is a fast unit with an average range of fire and high combat power. His task will be to enter the flank and rear of the enemy.
2. Support fighter. The armament of such a fighter will be a machine gun, it will have medium damage, but a higher range of fire than that of an assault fighter. Also, a support fighter can attack twice per turn and make a "heavy suppression" debuff.
3. Medic - this fighter is armed with a submachine gun and has high damage and the lowest range of fire. His main ability will be to restore the health of allies.
4. The sniper is armed with a sniper rifle and has the highest range of fire.
I plan a shelter system in the game, as in the new X-com. Shelters are divided into light and heavy, they will block incoming damage. But if a player goes on the flank, then the opponent loses cover bonuses.
The killing of the enemy does not occur immediately. When a fighter loses health, he falls into a “knockdown”. Allies can resurrect him, and opponents must come close and make “fatality”. A wounded soldier cannot move and attack, but he can watch (I conceived some kind of "fog of war").
Each fighter has a unique ability that can be applied to an enemy or ally. Abilities spend a stamina scale.
I also planned special equipment and grenades. But first, I have to hone the basic game mechanics.
The game will have several game cards that will be flat and very easy to manufacture (and which can be used for other games). Maps will be destructible - for this there will be markers of "destruction"
In the screenshot, I used the "Assassins" mission map from the "Laser Squad" game for experiments.
