Heat of Battle 2.0 is a fantastic game which can help you fill all of that spare time on your hands!
It's here! The culmination of years of intense work, dedication, blood, sweat, tears, and crashes to desktop. Heat of Battle for Call of Duty has finally reached that pivotal v1.0. There are a lot of great new features into this version and are finally at a point where we feel comfortable calling it one point zero. In the beginning there was one vision for what we felt that Call of Duty should be. Of course, that vision has been altered many times but the fundamental goals remained the same. Bring gamers together, make them want to work together, and make it as tactical as possible.

Will you betray your allies of yesterday? Will you follow the mysterious druids as they request your assistance? Command strongholds and large armies; take risky missions behind the enemy lines.

Myth Updater 1.3
Myth 1.3 Updater adds more enhanced features than any other previous update ever released. It now supports a new plug-in feature, allowing users to take third party plug-ins to enhance the game more>> Myth 1.3 Updater adds more enhanced features than any other previous update ever released. It now supports a new plug-in feature, allowing users to take third party plug-ins to enhance the game. Upon entering the multiplayer options screen you will notice a new list called plugins on the far right side of the interface. Any .GOR files that have been placed into the plugins folder will appear here. If you select a plugin in your plugins folder it will appear in your list of maps. If you select the newly appearing map, you will be able to play on it with all of its options. However the REALLY COOL thing is that if you select a plug-in but select another map all of that plugins unit changes (assuming the author of said plug-in didnt create new monster tags) will affect the map that you use. If it doesnt then youll need to talk to the author of the plugin.
Now here are a few catches:
- You can only enter a game that is using a plugin if you have that same plugin installed.
- If you change plugins all people without that plugin will get booted. Please note that all players must have the same versions of a given plugin as well. If youd like to find plugins a good place to start your search would be www.bungie.net/community/
- Bungie will NOT be maintaining a list of plug-ins.
- The plugin module only supports those plugins that exist as a .GOR file. Previously existing plugins will have to be rebuilt as a .GOR file. This can be done by the author using one of the available 3rd party .GOR composers.
Body Count
The co-star of the 1.3 update is the much lauded Bodycount game. Bodycount (especially BC Trow) has been the subject a great deal of abuse. Bungie has made numerous tweaks and changes to resolve these problems. They are as follows . . .
- Redirection bugs (i.e. chain lightning, trowkicking, etc.) have been resolved. Fetches will only shoot to their extreme range and thats it.
- The death of your own units will count against you if you kill them. The same amount you would win from killing an opposing unit, you will lose if you kill your own unit. For the most part this only happens if YOU kill your own unit, but there is one exception (see below). In any case it is very possible for your score to go into the negatives so beware. This does mean that you must be more careful with wight usage in order to get maximum kill for the 3 point loss you will incur.
- Satchel charges, empty bottles, and pus packets are now tracked to some extent. Any unit that is blown up by a satchel charge will count as a unit loss for the player who lost the unit. This means that satchels can be used to reduce your opponents score. They are a sort of offensive defense. This was done mainly because it is much too difficult to track satchels and pus packets to the current owner. It also adds a new tactical element to the game.
PowerPC, System 7.5 or later, Myth 1.2 or later, Myth 1.2 games are not compatible with Myth 1.3 games, so encourage people to upgrade.

The BOA allows a player to build and analyze multiple Build Orders without playing a game. Lose to a player due to their build? Then plug it into the BOA and figure out a build to counter it! Gamers no longer have to play game, after game, after game to figure out a decent counter to another players Build Order, they can use the BOA to figure it out. The BOA can literally save serious gamers hundreds of hours of game play!

GalaxyMage 0.1.0
GalaxyMage is a free, open-source tactical/strategic RPG for Windows, Linux, and Macintosh more>>
The tipical RPG game system is a type of role-playing game where turn-based battles are fought on a 3D map. Examples of commercial tactical RPGs include Final Fantasy Tactics, Vandal Hearts, and Disgaea: Hour of Darkness.
Our goal is to make GalaxyMage a game that is relatively simple to pick up and play -- you can dive right in without getting bogged down in the details of the battle mechanics -- but to also allow for a lot of character development and customization.
We also intend to create a unique, advanced AI system that allows enemy units to work together as a team and employ a wide variety of strategies. And eventually, we plan on adding networked multiplayer support.
Enhancements:
- Although this is our first release, the battle engine is nearly feature-complete. Players can participate in an entire battle against an AI opponent, complete with a 3D battle map, music, and sounds. Designers can develop their own custom battle maps, scenarios, character classes, and abilities. However, 0.1.0 doesnt come bundled with a lot of content: right now, there are only two battle scenarios, three character classes, and four abilities implemented. The AI is also not particularly challenging.
- All abilities, classes, scenarios, and maps are defined in simple, text-based configuration files, so it should be fairly easy for designers to jump in and start creating a new GalaxyMage campaign.
