About Crimson Fields

Crimson Fields is a tactical war game in the tradition of Battle Isle.

The outcome of the war lies in your hands. You decide which units are sent to the front lines, and when to unleash the reserves. Your mission objectives range from defending strategically vital locations to simply destroying all enemy forces in the area. Protect supply convoys or raid enemy facilities to uncover technological secrets or fill your storage bays so you can repair damaged units or build new ones in your own factories. Lead your troops to victory!

Tools are available to create custom maps and campaigns. You can also play the original Battle Isle maps if you have a copy of the game.

You can pit yourself against another human player either in hot-seat mode in front of the same machine or via e-mail, or against the computer.

Crimson Fields is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL).

using my limited brain

To play Crimson Fields you need version 1.1.5 or later of the SDL toolkit and SDL_ttf. If you want sound, you also need the SDL_mixer library from the same site.

The game has been developed and tested on Intel architecture under Linux, but it shouldn't be too hard to make it compile for other operating systems as well. So far, Crimson Fields has been reported to work on Linux, *BSD, MacOS X, Solaris, BeOS, and Microsoft Windows.

so it uses SDL
