MVP demonstration of tactical battles for a fantasy strategy 4x game. My philosophy is that high lethality, high unit counts and high diversity of units like mages and summoners makes battles more fun. Also you can't have truly epic units without having thousands of weak units for them to fight.

You are supposed to strategically set up your units before battle and then you can watch as it unfolds. You would build the units in a typical 4x overworld but in this demonstration you can place units without cost and generate random armies.

The Web version is a lot slower than the windows version, especially in non chrome browsers, so if the game feels slow try to download it.

The sprites are from Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup, they are open licence and can be found here:

Controls: Hold middle mouse button to drag around the screen. Scroll wheel zooms in and out. Select unit type to place to the left, left click places a blue version while right click places a red version.
