''Tank Wars'' (also known as ''BOMB'' because of the file name) is an artillery game developed in 1990 by Kenneth Morse.〔Kenneth Morse's ''(Tank Wars )'' on MobyGames〕 There is another artillery game named Tank Wars, written in 1986 by Cody Snider for DOS and the Apple II.〔Cody Snider's ''(Tank Wars )'' on MobyGames〕 Apart from the basic concept, these two games are not related. ==Description== The game allows for up to ten players in any combination of human and computer players. The number of games played in a set is chosen before the game (default is 20 games). New terrain is randomly drawn at the start of each individual game, and the tanks fall one by one into their start positions in random order, evenly spaced horizontally on the screen. The tanks then take turns firing at opponent tanks, order going left to right, until only one tank remains. The amount of "wind" (which affects the ballistics of each shot fired), as well as a toggle for turning wind on or off, are provided in the setup options for each game. However, the wind often changes in both magnitude and direction during a match. Other options are available including rebounding walls, background effects, and whether the tanks can fall when terrain is blown out from under them. Tanks may sustain damage from both weapon fire and from falling (if falling is switched on). When tanks are damaged, the number of "men" inside (indicated in the top right of the information bar in the game) decreases proportionally. This number is linked to the maximum available power for each shot fired; having a minimal number of crew left alive often leads to the player being unable to fire their cannon with sufficient power to reach enemies, particularly against a headwind. Points are awarded during the games for kills and wins. Points can then be used by each player to purchase new weapons and miscellaneous items in between games. These weapons range from the Nukes that give the shot a larger blast radius, to energy shields, to Chain Reaction Inducers which destroy terrain and cause tanks to fall, to defensive items such as Dirt Bombs that can be used to build up terrain and increase defences. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tank Wars」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
