For more than twenty years this planet was divided by a bloody war. For years the population suffered as fire and steel rained from the skies. It was only two months ago that the Continental Alliance managed, with great effort and heroic sacrifices, managed to break through the Planetary Federation defenses. After that it was only a matter of wiping out the last pockets of resistance. That was what we thought anyway. With it's back against the wall, the Federation unleashed it's most deadly weapon.

It wasn't long before a mysterious new disease spread through the rejoycing population. The first day, 50 people were hospitalized. The Next, 250. Within 3 weeks, there were more 40.000 people reported sick, all with the same symptoms: Fevers, desorientation, failing immunological systems, loss of cognitive functions, increased aggresion, irresponsiveness to pain or other stimuli, and then an irreversible cataconic state.

And then the killing started.

One by one, the patients got back up and attacked the personnel, while the infection rampaged through the streets. The Military tried to reinforce the Quarantine, and found itself having to shoot it's own citizens. With more than 60.000 infected, the situation was getting unbearable. The entire lower continent was evacuated, and defenses were set up near the mountains to hold back the tide of monsters.

Nevertheless, it wasn't enough. And Due to the fact that this planet lies in a contested area, there's not much help to be expected from that side.That's where you come in. The alliance has hired itself an army of mercenaries to hold back the zombies while the planet is evacuated.
You will be granted acces to a small base, and several vehicles to bring you to the front.

Governement support units:

One of these:

[spoilerhere= Personnel Helicopters]
Amount of squads: 4
Vehicles per squad: 1
Health: 20 hp
Armor: 4
Fuel: 10/10
Speed: 15,(10 Main map tiles per miniturn)
Capacity: 0/25
Size:2 (Needs 2 tiles to land)
Description:
These large helicopters were originally used to carry soldiers towards the front lines. They are very fast and have a large carrying capacity, at the expense of their combat abilities, which are non-existent. Their light armor serves only to give them time to retreat. Their fuel capacity is only mediocre.

[spoilerhere= Verticopter ]
Amount of squads: 2
Vehicles per squad: 1
Health: 30 hp
Armor: 2
Fuel: 10/10
Speed: 10,(8 Main map tiles per miniturn)
Capacity: 0/60
Can carry vehicles
Size:4 (Needs 2 tiles to land(a square))
Description:
This verticopter was never intended to serve anywhere near the front, but was instead used in salvaging and repair operations. Each verticopter has a suprisingly large carrying capacity, at the expense of armor and compactness. They are your best bet if you want to be able to deploy lots of vehicles fast.

Vehicles per squad: 3
Health: 40
Armor: 5
Fuel: 15/15
Speed: 5 (5 Campaign tiles per miniturn)
Range: 4

Description:
These Apc are much sturdier then helicopters, and are armed with a light machine gun. They de have a slightly lower carrying capacity and a much lower speed and are also unable to fly over buildings. Their offensive capabilities make up for this though.

Spoiler: Possible bases (click to show/hide)

Smugglers nest:

Hidden in a cave in the Western mountain range, the smugglers nest is undetectable and easily defensible, while being relatively close to the zombie horde. It is the perfect place for those with a free interpretation of the law and with questionable ethics.

Stats:
Minerals: 100/100
Fuel: 50/50
Supply flights: 1 per week (A supply flight delivers 100 minerals, 50 fuel or other stuff. Every flight can also take 200 evacuees with it)
Buildings:
-Command center

Seaside Airport:

Located near the Western coast, this base is good for those who want to use means of transport other than the conventional air and ground vehicles. Since this base has a simple port facility, materials are delivered by boat instead of planes.

Stats:
Minerals: 100/100
Fuel: 50/50
Supply boats: 1 per week (A supply boat delivers 150 minerals, 75 fuel or other stuff. Every boat can also take 300 evacuees with it)
Buildings:
-Command center
-Pier

Military airport:

This base was abandoned in sight of the advancing zombie horde. Most of the defenses are still intact, but all weaponry has been dismanteled and taken away. Whoever wants to reside here will have to fight for this base.

Stats:
Minerals: 100/100
Fuel: 50/50
Supply flights: 1 per week (A supply flight delivers 100 minerals, 50 fuel or other stuff. Every flight can also take 200 evacuees with it)

This base served as a backup to the main cargo airports of the capital city. When those would be bombarded the cities industries would be supplied from here. With the mines being overrun by zombies, it serves no purpose anymore.

Stats:
Minerals: 300/300
Fuel: 150/150

Rules

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Turns: Every turn equals one ingame week. Every turn supplies are flown, the zombie horde spreads around the map and a random event happens.
Miniturns: 1 turn equals 10 miniturns. Every miniturn units may attack, move or build combatstructures.(In that order)
Buildings: There are 3 types of buildins, base buildings, combat buildings and scenery buildings.

Base building: These buildings are build over a single or multiple turns, and are always located in your base. They can grant abilities, allow the training of other mercenary units or other things. When the base is attacked these function as scenery buildings. Examples are the storage buildings.

Combat building: A single tile building that is build by combat engineers or deployed from a prebuild package in the midst of battle. They are deployed in missions. Building them may take one or more miniturns. Examples of combat buildings are sentries and barricades.

Scenery building: These (often) multitile buildings are part from the mission map. They can be multiple floors high and can be entered by infantery, or if large enough be landed on by helicopters. Scenery buildings offer a range increase equal to the high of the building, maxed out at the units base range -1. A unit can climb an amount of floors equal to it's speed every turn. Floors can be barricaded at a rate of 3 floors per turn. A unit can only travel 1 barricade floor every miniturn. Scenery building also provide cover. Units inside or on top of the building can still be hit through the windows.

Cover: A unit is considered to be in cover, and therefore unable to be hit or seen by another unit,  if there 's a wall or building between them. Units can see over cover if they are higher than it and the distance between them and the cover is smaller or equal to the hightdifference between them and the top of the wall + the distance between the targetted unit and the cover.
Diagram:
A........W....B (Hight A =M Hight W=N, M-N>0)
A can't hit B if |AW|>M-N+|WB|

Missions: Missions are issued by the governement and other organisations every so often. They directly impact the global situation. Players can work for themselves too. One mission may be undertaken every turn, unless multiple missions are done simultanously

Missiontypes:

Evacuation: Rescue as much people as possible from an infected region. Zed pereodically arrive. People are evacuated towards your base, where they are picked up by the supply ships.

Hold the line: The player must hold a certain point until certain objectives are achieved. Zed arrive continously.

Destruction: All zombies must be eleminated. Limited pool of zeds.

Mission ends: A mission ends when all player units have been killed or evacuated or when all Zeds are destroyed.

Research: Research is done by chosing a research object and allocating research points to it. These can be gained in missions, produced by special buildings but are also awarded for killing infected, though some weapons award less points than others. (Artillery rounds, for example)

This is looking interesting I've got a couple questions though, concerning creating the unit types. Is there any way to calculate the price from the stats of the units we create? Is there some other way to balance them? Or do we just have to estimate it? I've got similar concerns for bases, and the special structures.

Uhm no. Let me just say that a basic infantery unit should cost 2500, will consist out of 2 squads(10 units each) and who deal between 0-5 damage. They also have light armour and a decent range. Uhm,yes. Unit abilities come to mind.
Yes in fact you do.

A basic zombie has 1 hp, deals between 0-1 damage, no armor and a speed of 2. Note that they get stronger in groups.

It's not supposed to say that, it is supposed to be empty. It will be filled up with lore and zombie info as you go along.

Um, for the base, You're supposed to pick one from the list. Or ask for a custom base.(I ran out of ideas for distinct bases) For the units, you can either come up with stats yourself, and I balance them or just give me a description of what you want.

@ Everyone, but mostly adwarf.

The two units you get in the beginning of the are actually blueprints. You can train more of them over time, given the right facilities and resources( Also you screwed up the spoilers). You get one of them for free in the beginning of the game.

Also take note that damage values(and health and armor and such) are for the entire squad combined, but that one Mercenary unit can consist out of multiple squads which consists out of soldiers. For adwarf, you would get only 1 squad for every unit you train, while common infantery gets 2.

Also some basic stats as aid.

Simple infantery (2 squads)
Price: 2500
Units per squad: 10
Health: 10
Armor: 1
Speed: 2
Range: 4
Damage: 0-5
Abilities:

Zed
Health: 1*amount of Zed
Armor: 0 (+1 for every 10 zed)
Speed: 2
Range: 1
Damage:0-1 for one Zed. This increases quite fast.
Abilities:
Infection

Edit:
I seemed to have messed up some terminology. Therefore, an added dictionary and I will also fix the OP shortly.

One mercenary Unit: You pay and build things per unit. One unit may consist of multiple squads.
One mercenary squad: Health armor and damage are all squad based. One squad is the smallest thing that can move independently across the map. Splitting is possible but not encouraged.( I don't want to do hundreds of rolls)
One soldier: Each squads is made up of multiple soldiers / vehicles. This has little  effect on gameplay ,unless when considering infection and special abilities.And splash damage()

These Apc are much sturdier then helicopters, and are armed with a light machine gun. They de have a slightly lower carrying capacity and a much lower speed and are also unable to fly over buildings. Their offensive capabilities make up for this though.

This looks like fun. I'll fill the boxes out over time.

They are very fast and have a large carrying capacity, at the expense of their combat abilities, which are non-existent. Their light armor serves only to give them time to retreat. Their fuel capacity is only mediocre.

Anyway, here's a balancing system for mercs.

Hum, yeah. I also see a problem coming with the fatc that the first units are free.( Points at expensive units.) Maybe I should give everyone 20.000 to start and subtract the costs of the units?

Also note that you can build other buildings then the 2 blueprints you can chose at the start.

Their fuel capacity is only mediocre.

Im am not entirely sure what stats my soldiers should have yet, because I don´t know whats "good". If you want to give them, go ahead, otherwise I will do it soon.

How long is a miniturn? (I am considering a ability, or more like a drawback for my support units, that for some time after they deployed, they only fire at half capacity since they will need some time to deploy the machine guns.)

Fixed my units, and left the price to you due to their abilities

[Evil Marahadja]

What is the normal buildings we can...build btw?
And what units?
And how does the Hero unit work?

[/questions]

[Doomblade187]

I'll take green and get to fixing my units. On a side note, I think I'll slow down the trucks a bit. No need to outrun APCs...

EDIT: mostly fixed, and I left the prices mostly blank. I do think, however, that trucks, even large ones, can probably go a little faster than APCs, due to the lack of armor and weapons weighing them down.
