THANCS ("Tactical Hex And Newtonian Combat Simulator") is a play-by-web tactical starship combat game written by Nick Dumas using his Ham & Eggs turn based strategy engine. I'm working on a user interface for the game, like I did for his Event Horizon game.
The goal of THANCS is to wipe out all the enemy spaceships (same as in Event Horizon) - the difference being that this is a tactical game (a la "Begin" or "Star Fleet Battles") - there is no ship construction aside from the initial fleet design, but there is far more detail... you will need to manage your ships' systems such as weapons, scanners, engines, etc., and ship parts will break off when the parts connecting them to the rest of the hull are destroyed!
The UI is being written in C# and uses WPF, so you'll need the .NET Framework to run it once I have something to show you!
Here's a very, very, very early version of a UI which hardly does anything: ThancsUI.zip.
