....is a Risk like web based game in which turns are taken simultaneously. Since it is played over the internet, actions are hidden from your enemies until the turn runs.
GLOBAL COMBAT has a WW1 era motif and contains a Elo based rating system which rewards players depending on their place in the game, not just whether they win or lose.
This leads to the political side to GLOBAL COMBAT, in which you must sometimes forge alliances in order to survive, fighting not just to win, but for your honor...
Global Combat was originally launched on 2001-01-22. After hosting the game for so long, we're considering the difficult decision to take the site offline.
To honor the players who played the game every day for over twenty years, I'm open sourcing the code for the game here.
See #11 if you'd be interested in hosting GC.
