HexBat

HexBat is a two-player, turn-based strategy game in which each player commands a team of three characters. Each team has one character in each of three positions: Forward, Flex and Support. Characters take turns according to their speed and generate Action Points (AP) at the start of each turn.

Characters and turns

Forward characters usually have high health and damage, but are the slowest. Flex characters have varied playstyles and are usually the fastest. Support characters have abilities that help other characters.

You spend AP to attack, heal or move, with movement costing 1 AP per tile. Unspent AP carries over to that character’s next turn, up to a maximum of 6 AP.

Hex grids

Battles take place on hex grids of up to 25 tiles. The game has five tile types:

• Spawn: a character’s starting point; it becomes a grass tile during the game.
• Grass: a basic tile with no direct effects.
• Mud: costs an additional AP to traverse.
• Molten: deals 10 damage to a character at the end of its turn.
• Corrupt: doubles all damage a character receives.

You can create custom hex grids with the in-game editor.

Victory condition

The first player to kill two characters on the opposing team wins.
