Great game. I just registered...

I might be missing it :oops: , but is there a skirmish mode? ie. no mission, just wipe the other player out?

Perhaps the way the game has been coded makes it difficult to generate a random landscape, but if this is the case, you could have several predefined ones to pick, and have both sides start with only a dominion and 3000 credits. If a level editor is ever released you could make 'em yourself :)

Our mission editor will be released in the not too distance future :), and we hear the feedback on skirmish mode. Thanks.

If there was a skirmish mode, I'd buy the game without hesitation.

Skirmish mode would be way cool. Question for Spiffcode, will each party need a registered version?

Cool...Will it be for PC or Palm, or both? I would personally like it on both, PC becuase you could do it faster, Palm because it would be fun to make maps while on the go and whule you have extra time, also it will look like you are doing art to others, instead of playing...:)

Since skirmish mode is still a question mark on the spiffcode to do list, obviously the details of how it will work are yet undecided :)

Skirmish... That would really be something. Me and my friends could all register and battle each other via Bluetooth.

AHHH! Gimme that.

Skirmish is when you are playing a multiplayer game agaisnt the computer; multiplayer is when you are playing against your friends, which is being done right now.

Alright. That is not my definition, however, as a multiplayer battle with friends usually is a furious skirmish as well, provided they know how to play the game.
