I nominate Tech Warfare by Eckhart Dillion and here is why...

HUD (heads up display) - If you use the game HUD all you need to do is click buttons!
COMMANDS (only work if choose not to use HUD) = build, bot, tower, factory, dialog on, dialog off. This game uses a.i., very advanced scripting and makes it fun for 1 vs 1 or 16 vs 16 players.

(here is a photo of the easy to use HUD)




***Info on why this game is so cool***

Pay the red or blue box whatever the fee is. Zoom in to the text above the "READY" buton to see the fee.

To change teams just touch the other team's "PAY HERE" box.
Get your HUD (heads up display) by clicking the Give HUD button.
RT click your HUD in inventory and choose wear.
You can resize and move the HUD or flip it over for a more compact version.
When everybody has hit the "READY" button the game will start. (will no longer be able to change teams)

An object will follow you that shows you your health bar and how much energy you have.
You get energy to build more as time progresses.

Touch the buttons on the HUD to summon your robots.
If you chose the "Dialog On" option, Dialog buttons will pop up and you click them to make things.

If you click "Ignore" you can bring the dialogs back by saying "build".
All items are created where you are standing.
Game pieces control themselves so placement and choice are your weapons.

Watch the health bar!
If you die you have to wait for the next game to play!

***HOW TO PLAY***

The object of the game is to destroy the enemy base and defend yours.
Games can be up to 16 vs 16 players!
Energy is increased for the team with fewer players.
You can build between the bases and more than 10 meters from the enemy base.
Some units only attack land or air bots. (missiles = AIR, Cannon = LAND)
All units can attack factories and towers.
Bots will head tward the enemy base and attack whatever they can on the way.
If you choose to use dialogs then you can bring up different menus with the commands - build, bot, factory, tower.
You can build a unit by saying its case sensitive name.
If you wanted to you could assign different hotkeys to bot names or menus using edit/gestures.

People can still join during the countdown.

Energy is required to summon robots.
If your health reaches 0% you will be killed and will have to wait for the next game to play.

To summon robots just say the commands - build, bot, tower and factory.
You will get a menu that allows you to pick what you want.

When you create robots they will come to your position then automatically head to the enemy base.

This game is the wave of the future using HUDs and A.I. in Second Life...basically in laymen's terms this game PwNz!

Tech Warfare - I haven't seen this played yet but it looks really fun when I visited it...
Danger Zone - Easy to learn and tasty gems of goodness...
Combat Cards - Only in beta 2 but has a lot of cool potential, already works well without a bug it seems...

Tech Warfare
02-07-2006 08:53
I nominate Tech Warfare RTS (I made it)

This game is my baby. I have always been a big fan of Starcraft and RTS games in general. This game is exciting and fun. Tech Warfare is easy to learn and control.
Just click a button on your Tech War HUD to build units. If you have enough energy that unit will be created.
Your strategy is based on what you choose to summon and where.

You receive "Energy" during the game based on how large your team is compared to the enemy team and how many generators you have captured.
Teams cooperate to defend against and attack the enemy team.
You win by destroying the enemy base. This goal is hard wired into every bot you make.

All of your combat is done by summoning 3 basic types of units.

Bots - These guys are spawned where you are standing and head to the enemy base attacking everything in their way.

Factories - Manufacture weaker bots every 30 seconds or so.

Towers - Set up defensive towers around vulnerable buildings!

I recently added Generators to give the game capture points. Generators will award your whole team energy over time.

Keep in mind that enemy bots will attack you! Be careful! When you die you can no longer play until next game.

I have done much work to make this game perform efficiently. The game pieces have been balanced and tweaked several times over.

Prim usage can be heavy at times but this is easy to limit by making the playing field smaller and by limiting team sizes. I will work with LL to make this game the best it can be!
