Wow the AI is brutal. If you just wanna play fast and loose even medium can completely crush you. I wish there was an option to play warpath with a fixed board. I really dislike the big boards because there are just too many options to calculate between each move. A game with this many possible moves is best when constricted a bit. See www.pushfight.com for an example of a more simple set of mechanics that is still very strategy heavy.
Thanks for the comment and for showing me your example, I didn't know there is a similar game. Anyway, Divoshi better resembles a real battle and is more intuitive in my opinion. As for the number of options, what would you say to Go game, or Arimaa? There are even more possible moves in these games. You just need here to stick to main tactical principles, not calculating everything. I started to make Divoshi tactical guide: http://www.thunderbird.cz/games/divoshi-tactics . Personally I too like small boards with 7 rows a little more than large ones, don't know yet which size is best. But the big ones are here to introduce large epic battles. Maybe I'll update the game version on my website and move large boards to the end of the warpath.

Great Game!I wasn about to try it out at first thinking it would be just another classic "chess" but it was surprisingly well thought.It might need a description for the move of each piece somewhere.
Thanks! It might not seem so but the game rules are result of a long development. I thought they are clear enough but you may be right. Will place the complete rules on my website.

Allright, I think I mastered this game. I still mess up sometimes on really huge boards, but other than that I basically don't lose.
This game needs a harder AI. Maybe one that doesn't forget its king is under attack half the time.
