stratego fans?
Hello everyone;
Thought Stratego fans might want to know about this one.

http://www.windowsgames.co.uk/PocketPC.html

It is a commercial product but I downloaded the free trial so far and it is way cool

Graphics could use some improvements, it looks nothing like the Milton Bradley version except for the board but the game play is spot on.

Computer takes no prisoners and has whupped me three times straight the times I've played it since downloading the trial.

If you like Stratego, this is one game I reccommend you give a try.

I tried it a long time ago when the AI was pretty much random, I suppose it should be better by now. Give it a shot and see what you think.

Dr G;

Thanks for the link but I downloaded and tried to instal and got the message it was not a valid file. Looks nice, looks more like Stratego than Pocket General but if I can't get it to install ....

I'll give it a whirl and see how it is ... hmm doesn't seem to want to install for me either ... emailed the developer, we'll see what he says.

Let me know if you get a response. I'd like to try it to see if it is better before I purchase Pocket General.

I am developer of Reveal Your Rank!
The game hasn't been updated for a while, so now it is not quite compatible with the Windows Mobile 2003 SE. I am still trying to find some time to update the game. I hope to finish it in the next few weeks. Meanwhile you can try the version for PC. I will let you now about the progress.

Hey Raimonds;
Nice game and thanks for the post.

I'd love to know when you update the game. I still have the trial on my Dell Ax 30h (and it plays well BTW) but it's kinda easy now since I Know where the flag is on the trial version . I like the game but am hoping you can include some icons on the game pieces to make them look better. I'll keep checking back looking for the updates.

Again, thanks for taking the time to develop the game and respond to my post. I really appreciate it.

sorry to jab, but the trial is way too easy. every piece is in the same spot every game. all you gotta do is make sure you get that miner up there and its a done game.

Hyrax;

I know, that what's ruined it for me. But I did like the fact the game exist at all and I'm hoping the developer will update it soon (with better icons) so I can purchase the new & improved version.
