CONGRATULATIONS!! It's great that you quit for 2 months now and wish you further success in the future. That game looks interesting. Reminds me of Chinsese checkers.

I am not sure why the picture is so small.... you can see it better here... https://twitter.com/#!/StratixGame/media/slideshow?url=pic.twitter.com/h659VLYz

The game play is very similar to chess...
A strategy game played by 2-4 players, ages 10+. You have your choice of Red, blue, black or yellow army. Each army consists of 6 infantry units~ the Orbis, 5 tank units~ the Raze, 4 artillery units~ the Wega, 3 helicopter units~ the Vex, 2 jet fighter units~ the Arcus and 1 ICBM unit~ the Surfeit. Each army starts off in its own staging area (much like chess) and the pieces are moved one by one into play. There is are 2 "safe" spaces in each players playing zone titled "Recon Pack". When you move onto this space you draw a card. Gmae play lasts anywhere from 35 minutes to several hours depending on the amount of players and involvement.

Thank you everyone here for helping me reach the 2 month goal! I love being a non-smoker!

It looks like a great game and the rules are definitely different from Chinese checkers.

Thank you! I am going to be going to alot of game cons in the next year I think. I hope everyone like it as much as I do. My hope is that we can be GAINFULLY self employed by this. Enough to start some of our other projects. There is a Horror movie and eventually a Non-profit Fantasy theme park. Of course the theme park will pay employee salaries. But the "profits" go to charitable funds like cancer, burn victims... stuff like that. I dream big. I don't want a HUGE house and fancy cars or anything. I do want to make a lot of money, but that is so I can give it to others that need it.

No problem, I hope you and your husband have as much success as possible. I'm sure that game will be popular and wish you two the best of luck. Yall will probably be self employed in time.

All it takes is the vision and you definitely have it. It's great that the proceeds will be going to charitable funds. It's always better to give to people anyways. I can see the two of you being very successful with that type of attitude. Take Oprah or the Gates for example. They never wanted the money but, it came to them regardless.
