Dreamblade
Posted: 30 May 2009, 01:18
Hi,
This is an info post for my computer version of a collectible miniatures game
called "Dreamblade". Dreamblade was released by Wizards of the Coast
in August 2006 and was cancelled in 2007. Please note that Wizards of the Coast
are in no way associated with this computer game.
Below is the homepage of the game, and there
is also an online playable demo there to become acquainted with the basics of the game.

The game is mix of Magic the Gathering and Chess played on
a 5x5 board with very cool miniatures. The rules and FAQ
on the game itself are available here:

This version supports all of the 396 released miniatures including the official
stats for Serrated Dawn which was not released, and other custom sets/minis (including
Witching Hour and Twilight expansions), all of the rules/mechanics, lots of cool extras,
and a decent AI player. Rules are enforced by the program.
The minis can be seen here:

Here's a picture of the GUI version running:

Both a GUI version and a console (text based) version are included.
My webpage for the program is at the address below, and here you can download the program for your platform of choice:

There are example warbands included under the 'warband' directory
and a README under the 'doc' directory. How to run and use the
program is described in the README file.
At some point I may post the source if there is interest in helping out.
I'd love to hear feedback and bug reports etc would be GREATLY
appreciated. Please post in this forum with your feedback/etc if possible rather than
emailing me directly.
Thanks!
