This innovative collection of combat engines uses a dynamic tactic menu and narratives. It also supports \"Play By Mail\", \"Play By Email\", and Comic Book publishing. You can easily integrate these combat engines into any game genre's conflict encounters -- it is designed to replace the traditional \"die-rolls\" with more interactive combat participation.

I use this collection of conflict resolution systems in several of my RPG Series and other gaming products. Each system is a \"stand-alone\" and \"In-Game\" module that can replace, add to, or substitute any conflict resolution system in any game.

• Deployment modes -- single-player, multi-player, client-side only, and client/server.

• All are turn-based -- meaning each player submits their tactics during a combat round.

• 'Game Turn Orders' (GTO) are submitted sequentially or simultaneously.

• These are NOT tied to any gaming rules. This gives you the freedom to dictate, weapons used (physical or 'abstract' as in magic spells), damage inflicted, and duel termination conditions.
