Of course, just as you restart the server, I go away to CSUN. I'll certainly
be checking it out now that I'm back.
Thanks for all you do. I look forward to your upcoming engine.
Best,
Ryan

I've restarted the TBServer so you can play multiplayer again.
Craig Brett deserves the credit for adding multiplayer capabilities to
Tactical Battle.
I no longer maintain TB, but I am working on a new moddable multiplayer
gaming platform.
I expect it to support a wide variety of turn based games, like card games,
strategy games, classic board games, etc.
I will even remake some of Tactical Battle in it as a sample game that can
be extended and modded by others.
It will be much more moddable than TB, so would better support your ideas
for playing table top games, once it is finished.
The map editor and file format for defining units, skills, effects, items,
terrain, etc, will remain roughly the same, so learning to make map packs in
TB would be a relevant skill for the new system.
I think anyone who has enjoyed being a map pack creator for Tactical Battle
will really enjoy the new system.

Hi all,
I was very excited to see that version 3 of TB is playable online. When I
tried to log on, though, the server was down.
Is this still in active development? Is it possible for me to run my own
server?
I would love to explore the possibility of using this setup to play tabletop
games.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
Best,
Ryan
