Overview
Welcome to the OTOPIA wargames home page. Our games are faithful computer conversions of some of the best hex-based board wargames ever created. All OTOPIA wargames are based on the same game engine, providing consistent user interface and functionality, including:
- All rules are fully enforced by the computer.
- Drag and drop interface for moving units and initiating combat
- 'Follow me' toolbar showing the units in the hex at the current cursor location
- 'Clicked hex' toolbar showing units in the last hex to be clicked on
- Full undo/redo
- Full play-by-email support, including cheat detection code which will inform your opponent if you undo a die roll, or re-load the game from an earlier position.
- Runs under Windows (95/98 and NT 3.51 and later) allowing high resolution displays so that large areas of the map can be seen
- Multiple zoom resolutions to allow detailed view or an overall view of the whole map
- Ability to rotate map (in 90 degree increments) so any map-edge can be at the top of the screen
- Multiple windows (eg so you see the whole map in one window and a more detailed view in another, or have views on two different fronts)
- Map editor so you can change the terrain!
- AI so you can play against the computer (currently only available in Strike Force One)
