Default Re: More Gaming from Shrapnel...check it out!!

looks very cool, but do you have to do all the terrain by hand? Is there any kind of automatic terrain generation, or is it all custom built for the scenario? any multiplayer support.

I had a bLast with (moment of silence for the original classic, please.) Wargame Construction Kit but man, you had to have a seperate tile for each river bank, every turn in the road, EVERYTHING. what a pain. can this, say, automatically figure out how roads should bend and rivers should bank (sort of like sim city)?

and is this strictly for wargaming, or can it do things like (i will be blown away if anyone remembers this one) the old shareware Adventure Creation Kit (ACK)? I remember downloading that one from a BBS in San Diego Circa 1988. there was a great bit of code. found it once on the internet, but was sorely disapointed at the lack (or non existance of) user created adventures. to my knowledge, the ones I made myself are the only ones that ever showed up in the public domain. but i digress.
