LGeneral
LGeneral is a turn-based strategy engine heavily inspired by Panzer General. You play single scenarios or whole campaigns turn by turn against a human player or the AI. Entrenchment, rugged defense, defensive fire, surprise contacts, surrender, unit supply, weather influence, reinforcements and other implementations contribute to the tactical and strategic depth of the game.
This game requires SDL (>= 1.1.4). For sound you'll need the SDL Mixer (Optional: LGeneral runs without it as well.)
