LGeneral is a turn-based strategy engine heavily inspired by Panzer General. You play single scenarios or whole campaigns turn by turn against a human player or the AI. Entrenchment, rugged defense, defensive fire, surprise contacts, surrender, unit supply, weather influence, reinforcements and other implementations contribute to the tactical and strategic depth of the game.

Requested by ScottYelich several times. Hope you like it, it's not my type of game to be honest

The Panzer General (DOS) Data is already included in the package.

Have fun!

Hi

Has anyone got this to run in beta1? I'd really like to try this game out.

Strangely, installing this also seems to wipe out the menu icon for lbreakout2 (which does work in beta1)

I thought perhaps I was missing a dependency so I tried to run it from the console... no go.

Any help appreciated.

Mark

PS... does the package manager in beta1 not show missing dependencies when installing an ipk anymore?

Heh, I haven't actually installed cortez's package but I extracted and saw that indeed it used lbreakout2.desktop instead of eg lgeneral.desktop

It does, but the packager has to indicate what the dependencies are, cortez's package (and mine) don't

Difference between my package and cortez's:

used a more standard location for installation
an icon that works
left out man page
left out localisation (only English)

NB if you use a WM like matchbox the bottom part will be obscured by the taskbar.

Thanks Desertrat, now loads ok.

Unfortunately loading the maps eats all my 860's memory

I tried a swap file on my cf card but performance suffered pretty badly (don't think my card is very fast).

Oh well, it was worth a try!

Thanks again.

Mark
