Hex Tactics

Please keep in mind this is a concept and results while playing may wildly vary...

How to play the game:

Connecting: Once the game loads you should be at a screen prompting you to "Connect" Left-click this button and it'll connect you to the server If the game window/application freezes, something went wrong on the server end This might require the server owner to restart the service OR should restart soon.

Logging in: Once connected you'll be prompted to type in a username or use what's already provided Left-click the "LOGIN" button to log in You might not be allowed you log in if someone else is using that username.

Requesting Player Matches: Once you've logged in, you can select other player's username on the left side of the screen Left-click anyone's username to request a match with them You can use the scroll-wheel in order to see more usernames if applicable Once you've selected someone to match with, have them do the same This will prompt a "CONFIRM" button for both players Once both players have Left-clicked the "CONFIRM" button, the game will begin.

The Game: (extra information about the units will be at the very bottom) You and your opponent will start out on a map with each a homebase and 4 units A player will be randomy selected to go first, they will be colored red, blue for second Your username will be displayed in the top right, while your opponent's in the top left Each player's Gold amount will be under their usernames The current player's turn will be shown top middle When it's your turn a prompt will be shown top middle, press the spacebar to pass your turn You can move the map by Right-click-holding and moving the mouse During your turn you can move units buy left-click-holding them and placing them on a valid hex The unit's available positions will be shown when "held" (by left-click-holding) Release left-click with them over a new hex to place them there They will only be able to move once per turn, and be shown faded once moved Units may not cross water tiles, pass through enemy units, or land on friendly units If a unit is being placed on top of an enemy unit they will fight During a fight each unit rolls a number between 0 and their max damage The unit with the highest roll will survive while the other dies If both rolls are equal they both die Gold will be awarded to the opponent of the defeated unit As well as defeating another player's unit, players will receive gold when they pass their turn Gold can be spent to purchase units via pressing keys 1, 2, 3, and 4 on the keyboard Prices for purchasing units are on the left side of the screen Once a unit is purchased that unit will spawn on the owner's homebase A unit purchased cannot move on the same turn.

Win Condition: Whenever a player moves a unit on their opponents homebase, that unit will roll it's damage on that homebase Once the homebases HP is 0 or less, the player of that homebase loses the game If a unit moves on a homebase with an opponents unit on it, attacking rolls are calculated first If the unit survives this fight it will then roll again against the homebase Once a unit has attacked a homebase, it dies.
