Description Ogre
Ogre is a character warfare game for medium to high resolution. You command a force of infantry, armor and howitzers facing a large cybernetic tank, the Ogre. Your mission is to destroy the Ogre, or at least immobilize it, before it reaches and destroys your command post. The game is based on a MicroGame of the same name created by Steve Jackson in 1977.
The battlefield is represented by dots and the stars mark craters. The units at your disposal are: howitzer (H), heavy tank (T), missile tank (M), GEV (G), infantry (1-9 depending on strength) and the command post (C). When you have placed all your units, the Ogre (represented by an O) appears on the left of the screen. After the Ogre appears, the actual game begins and consists of 5 phases:1: You can move your units. 2: Units within firing range of the Ogre can fire. 3: You can move your GEV:s. 4: The Ogre moves. 5: The Ogre fires at everything in range, disabled units will be replaced by their corresponding lower case letter and destroyed units will be removed from the game. These phases are repeated until either you or the Ogre wins.
