Urban Warfare (Map Game series)



Urban Warfare is a Map Game series originally created by IonMapping. The series revolves around a common scenario: major cities falling into complete anarchy. Each Map Game is based on a well-known city. There are usually 3 teams in each map game, each team having different political views and different reasons to take over the whole city. The team who takes over the whole city is declared as the winner.

Mechanics
The Urban Warfare series requires players on the same team to work together and plan out strategies. It rewards players who enact operations with their teammates. Attempting to be a lone wolf usually ends tragically.

Each team has different pros and cons, such as, but not limited to, increased/decreased riot chance, increased/decreased recruitment rate, etc. These traits greatly affect the playstyle of each team. There also can be some special features that is limited to one team, such as hiring mercenaries, sabotaging districts etc. Players can also do special moves in their turns. From blowing up railways and bridges to blocking supply lines, every single operation can affect the result of the map game.

List of games
There are currently 3 games in the series. However, another one about Hamburg has been hinted by IonMapping.
