The game Ogre (which I had no trouble compiling) is really wonderful; bringing
back the memory of many hours spent playing the paper version. However, there
is an inconsistency in the electronic version which I can't figure. Lacking a
copy of the paper game, I can't go to the rules. Perhaps someone (the author?)
who does can advise.
This version of ogre(6) allows you to place the Command Post in a crater. This
is an extremely effective defense technique, since it is no longer possible for
the Ogre to ram the CP (you can't enter craters, right?). You can just blast
away at the batteries and missiles, and once those are gone, take your time at
finishing off the treads for the win. You don't even need to take out the
anti-personnel guns.
In fact, if the CP is in a crater, once the batteries and missiles are gone,
you cannot lose the game. The best the Ogre can hope for is a stalemate, by
destroying any infantry with AP, and destroying any armor by ramming (not easy)
before all its treads are gone.
In fact, it is even possible to place the CP on top of another unit (or units
of infantry), even though placing units on top of the CP is disallowed. This
is definitely an inconsistency.
Although I haven't yet beat the Ogre without placing the CP in a crater, the
poor checking on CP placement would seem to be a bug. If in fact it violates
the rules, here is a fix:

Some other trivia; there is a sequel to the Ogre game called G.E.V. which pits
"defenders" against defenders (no ogre). I don't recollect it fully, but I
seem to remember that there were some additional armored unit types.
I believe that it was only in G.E.V. (and the re-release of Ogre) that the
second movement phase of GEVs was reduced to three hexes in order to bring it
more into line with other units (in the original Ogre, GEVs moved 4 + 4).
If anyone could send me details, I would be happy to implement the extensions.

Actually, AntiPersonnel weapons are sufficient for destroying the Command Post. I have a copy of both Ogre and GEV, but they aren't handy right now. I also have The Ogre Book, which includes such niceties as new scenarios, strategy & tactics, and a few new units, such as the Marks I, II, IV, and VI, as well as a few "hybrid" units. (The Mark IV was also present in GEV.) Several of these newer units are also in GEV, including light tanks, mobile howitzers, and other goodies. Including the units would be no problem, but fixing up the map would be a challenge. In GEV, the map is about 50% larger and has *terrain*. Roads, swamps, forests, rivers, lakes, gullies, cities... Terrain is a Real Nice thing to have in a game of ground based armor units. Ah well. There are also new rules for stacking, ie allowing multiple units per hex, overrun attacks, and other good stuff that would be nice to take into account. Ah well. I can't check to see if this is a real "bug" or not, but I'm gonna keep that patch handy... -- -- Howard Chu UUCP: ...!seismo!umix!hyc ARPA: hyc@umix.cc.umich.edu

I found my copies of Ogre and G.E.V. so I can say that the bug I reported
earlier is in fact a bug. The rules state clearly that objects cannot be
placed on top of each other, or on craters.
Once I had the rules to G.E.V. I couldn't resist adding the new unit types to
ogre. So I am enclosing patches to add the Ogre Mark IV, and the 'L' (light
tank) and 'B' (mobile howitzer) type units. Note that you get two light tanks
for each armor point.
If anyone with The Ogre Book can send me the specs on the Mark I, II, and VI
Ogres, I can add them as well. Or they can just send out the patches
themselves. Anyone who is really inspired could try implementing the terrain
rules. Overrun combat is another possibility, but perhaps too complex to be
worth it.
The Ogre Mark IV has a different missile weapon system, with 3 missile racks,
but 15 missiles. Missile racks (but not missiles) can be attacked, and when
they are destroyed, one missile is destroyed. Only one missile can be fired
per turn per rack (they take time to reload). Missile racks also have a
defense of 4 instead of 3. The Mark IV is also faster, with a movement of 4.
It has fewer main and secondary batteries, though, so it is considered on a par
with the Mark V.
To be able to implement all Ogres with the same structure, I modified the the
Mark III and Mark V Ogres. They both now have 2 missile racks, and the same
number of missiles as before. The justification for this is that there is a
rule in Ogre which says they can fire no more than 2 missiles per turn. The
Mark V has 6 missiles (according to the Ogre rulebook) not 5. Was this changed
in later versions of Ogre (I have the original)?
One other discrepancy I noted between the Ogre rules and the implementation is
the number of armor and infantry points which the defender gets. The paper
rules give you far more points than the program. Is this because the dumb
computer needs a handicap?
The patches which jpochma@polyslo.UUCP (John H Pochmara) posted to fix up
problems with _doprnt() on some machines had a flaw: they failed to erase to
end of line, as the display() routine had.
The rest of this posting is a set of patches which should be applied to the
original ogre, as posted to comp.sources.games (dust off those shar files now).
They fix the _doprnt problem, and the CP placement bug. A number of other
cosmetic changes are included as well. And of course, the new units and Ogre
types.
