I put together a quick and easy little game last night in my spare time.

Basically you and the computer take turns in placing 'pieces' on a board which automatically combat adjacent enemies or in the case of magic users enemies up to two squares away.

The player can move their pieces by clicking on them and then choosing another square to move to.

The pc does not move its pieces.

The object of the game is to be the only team with pieces on the board.

Each piece has an initiative rating that determines when it attacks and a hitpoint total.
Each piece has a variety of different special abilities as well that act as follows:
healer - heals friendly adjacent units
ethereal - ignores first hit each round
regeneration - heals self each round
fearsome - add 1 point to initiative of opponents adjacent to us
inspiring - deduct 1 point to initiative of friendlies adjacent to us
double attack - deal 2 points of damage per attack
second attack - attack once at normal initiative and once again at the end of the round

Nice little combat system, it can be quite tactical !
Everyone knew it was impossible, until someone who didn't know made it.
