I really like strategy games, and videogames in general. What started me on this journey was arguably atwar back in 2014. I didn't really look at games in the multiplayer sense until then. Since in a strategy game with multiple people, you are typically forced to cooperate with other players to achieve success.
In the form of being a cartographer and fabricating maps for the game, it has also beaten the path for me to become a content creator for games. That's how I got into the world of modding, and by extension, programming.
As you may know, atwar always lacked bots, unlike other strategy games. Actually, the reason I am a software engineer today - with a high interest in AI development - can be almost entirely accredited to playing atwar over a decade ago.
Hilarious. You wouldn't expect a game this tiny to have this enormous effect on someone's life. It's the small things that turn you into who you are, after all.
That's a fun analytical view of how I did what, when and why, up until this point... indeed.

Why do you say that atWar will be shut down?

Ghosts talking in a graveyard

Spam anti air defense unit, fort and anti air building, but in the capital only, since it drains economy

Hey, im new to the game, im having a hard time defending my capital from big air attacks(100+ planes), any tips? on defense on general as well im having a hard time understanding how to set it up

I'm glad the admin is keeping this game up for the long term. It really is a gem.

I know that atWar will be shutdown in the future, when Dave decides that he doesn't want to continue on with this game, I'm not sure who would pick it up. I want to dedicate this thread to us expressing our love and gratitude for this game. No matter how few people we are, we'll still play this game till the day it dies.

I'll go first. I made my first account in 2014 under the name of PartySUPERB15. I played up until rank 7, then completely forgot about the game, until I re-discovered it back in 2018. That's when I made my main account here, woojoo. I didn't meet many people through the game, but I hope I got along with you guys well enough (even if I am shit at 3v3s).

But otherwise I like the idea of this thread. I'll go: I started in 2018 (I think?) with my super-secret alt that still lurks in casuals from time to time. I still love the game, just wish I had more time to play these days.

That is good to hear man, I will be honest I have been somewhat critical of how game is being managed but I appreciate this statement, I grew up playing AW and know many good people on here who still play. So to hear that AW won't shut down is genuinely great and puts a smile on my face.

AtWar will live forever in our hearts! It's been 17 years since I started working on the map engine and initial game implementation back in 2008. It's truly amazing to think that this many years later it is still alive. Hugs everyone

It's great to see you Amok, come around more often!

Also please don't be offended by my signature it was a joke someone sent me and I thought it was funny. I was not scammed at all and I'm actually grateful to be the one keeping atWar going. <3

Be able to replay past games by yourself or other players. That is, you can click on the past game, and see the progression of the already completed game. You can click and see where units were moved for each subsequent turn and the battle results of said turn, until the end of the game.

Three benefits: 1. allow players to study their games like football film and improve their game.
2. When there are no good games going on players can see what other big, interesting, or exciting games went on.
3. CAN MAKE DUELS MORE INTERESTING BECAUSE WE CAN ACTUALLY SEE HOW IT TRANSPIRED, IF IT WAS A BLOWOUT OR NOT ETC.

I found atwar through a friend in 2022 (new player wowie)
And since that day I liked this game and the strategies it offers in the player's hands

I found atwar in college I think around 2017-2018? Those days there were so many players. Duels, fantasy games that were filled like LOTR, UN RP games that filled, WWI, etc. Great times to love the game. If there is enough players these maps we have, the units we can create, can be anything we want it to be. The ultimate pastime or escapisim. I will always love atwar.

AtWar is lovely. I created my account in 2014, and 2014-2016 were definitely peak years. Mapmakers launching new maps everyday, games of 20 players getting full so fast (like WW2) in question of minutes). I mean, it was perfect, then the game went through updating from Adobe to HTML, then I think it had a year of problems with DDoS attacks (I am not sure if it was in 2019). I mean, it had lots of problems, but with the pandemic the game went back to be played, and 2020-2022 were the last years where quick games would still get filled. From 2023 to 2025, games have had increasingly more problems to get filled. At this point, no one can play even the smaller maps on quick games, but casual games are still resisting, even if 5 people leave in the first turns for not moving, and then the rest.

As I have pointed out during many years (even though I have been told again and again that it is not possible), I think that using AI may help the game significantly. I am not an expert on this topic, but Dave considered the idea last time we were talking on the chat, so I hope it is taken into consideration for all the players in the community that are still playing, and those new ones who are coming to discover the game in the next few years.

Can the Mods finally do something about these guys? Not only do they allyfag but they also join on alts, I played against the leader of this clan and he had his alt join in NA and made it a 2v1.. once I died, he emptied land on his alt and funded his main account.

I became a casual player due to the given circumstances.

I only come online to play my moves for my casual game and I bounce. This game will always have a spot in my heart. 2017-2019 was the best time to be around, then you had lockdown 2020 when most, if not, all of the players on this game came back. Life was fun back then, sad to see this game dead but it's part of life, you have jobs, college, possibly wife and kids now.

Atwar was my life in 2017 to 2019

I will miss Hendrix and Ghostface, fun to play with them and we always had each others back.
