Players can join or leave multiplayer games at any time. Maps range in size from 10x13 to 64x85 640x480 size screens. A skirmish mode will be available for those without a ready network connection. The computer player available in skirmish mode can also be used in regular multiplayer games as well. Players will be battling for outposts, so that they can increase their unit count.
Every player respawns when their last unit is destroyed.
By capturing an outpost, a player can build more units. Each unit has a specific build time. A major strategy in the game will be capturing and holding onto outposts. Each outpost a player owns can produce units for the player. An outpost is mainly a factory that produces units for the player who owns it.
