BFME 1 Stratego map

Hey there You might know this board game called stratego.
Where you move the towers each on its turn and attack another tower.

By attacking you see what unit your enemy has in the tower.
The strongest unit stays the weak one gets removed from the map.


I got now 3 obstacles where I need some help with.

1. Moving towers
Able to select and move one tower at each turn.

2. Bomb explodes on everyone
Except a miner(worker unit) can disable the bomb

3. Preperation round
First round to freely choose where to put your flag bombs & other units.

For number three, black out the screen for one player for about 3 minutes and give the other player all their units and allow them to garrison as desired. Then reverse.

For no.1

Possible use Buildplots for the towers
like Object RohanBaseDefenceFoundation

use scripts to allow the player to destroy / Build one tower
the equivalent of moving , the only way that may be possible to maintain the GRID formation

for 2 : Isengard's mine would work , and the porter can destroy it via weapon coding

This would need some SERIOUS Scripting ....Any one for Chess

1. Moving Towers:
It would be much easier for you if you used Mordor's siege towers because they can move and that would inevitably look better... that might make this thing with strong/weak units tricky though.

2: Bomb 'explodes on everyone':
(Supplementary to JUS_SAURON's post) you would want to put in damage exceptions to the bomb's effect to stop the porter taking damage.

3: Couldn't you have both players doing this at the same time? You might have to have two identical battlefields (one for each player) where the other player's battlefield is unseen for each player, then one player's preparations then transferred across.

Any updates on this map if it is still being worked on?
