    TacticsBoard

    Cross Post about an amazing web browser(soon to be in-game overlay) program that I think would help TG at CSS get much more fun.

    You can essentially make plans while your dead waiting for a round to be over. Create a Defensive/Offensive plan and try the idea out with little explanation.

    If this works as well as I think it does I can see some very fun games in the future.

    Anyone up for testing this out with me with CSS in windowed mode? *cringe*

    Tactics-Board Site - They have quite a few tutorials to teach you how to run the program.

    This looks very promising. If they can make it into a program that could work in-game and is able to use overlays for our maps, I'd love to use it. However, it could be a problem if everyone doesn't have it.

    Very interesting indeed. It could be accessed in game via the Steam window. I've been interested in this kind of functionality for a long time now. Planning strategies out on a map is what made Plan of Attack such a good game.

    Damn that was a good mod, too bad nobody plays it anymore. I agree, we gotta at least try it on a lockdown see if it's good.

    A little problem with the functionality of this program while in steam overlay. It does not work because it needs java applets to run in the web browser, unless someone knows a way around that the only way I could see us testing this out is for all of us to use window mode which is highly unlikely.

    Or we can just wait for an in-game overlay to come out.

    Also X-fire web browser doesn't work either.

    Woah, it uses Java? Now that sucks. Well, maybe they can get it to run in the motd page thingy. Not sure that thing supports Java tough.

    On another note, we should all download Plan of Attack
