TheBasics


Here is another creation from the den of LawyerLar.

Here, you start with the 5 x 5 basics:  lair, hatchery, workshop, library, treasury, etc.
So, of course, do your three rival Keepers.  What can you do with the basics already handed 
to you?  Can you find your share of the 16 portals?  (I hope so, since it's not like there 
are golden arrows pointing to them or anything.  Oh, wait a minute ...) What will your 
strategy be with three other Keepers with the exact same assets as you?  How will your 
strategy change when you find that pesky, indestructible Hero Gate at your doorstep?  
And, is it just me, or does the Hero Gate become an increasingly large pain in the butt 
as time goes on?


Once again, thanks go out to Mark Kinkead for his mapper and GUI, and, to EA/Bullfrog for
the game itself.

Now for the disclaimer:  It works fine on my machine.  If it blows your machine up ...
oops!

For a real treat, set the AI Keepers on Paranoid, Psychotic and Master, and play it the
first time with Fog of War on.  One of the three goes beserk early.
