AmigaOS 4: Turn based strategy game M.A.X. Reloaded
Mechanized Assault & Exploration ("M.A.X.") is a turn based strategy game which was published for DOS-computers in 1996. The remake "M.A.X. Reloaded" (screenshots: 1, 2) offers now network support with TCP/IP. Additionally several bugs in the multiplayer modus of the commercial version were fixed.
M.A.X. Reloaded is not only an engine but includes all required data for the game. If you have got the commercial original you can use those graphics - if you want to use it under AmigaOS 4 have a look at the readme.
