Downloads
Running it
Run with:
java -jar Miles.jar file.txt
File.txt is a simple text-file describing the board-layout you want to use.
The contents of the file can look like this:
1: VMGKKJJJPP
2: PPLLLLSSSS
3: IIIIIRRRRR
4: RRROBBBBBB
As you can see it consists of 4 lines with a line-number and for each position a character that selects the piece-type to put on the board at that position.
List of possible characters:
- V: VLAG (flag)
- M: MAARSCHALK (marshal)
- G: GENERAAL (general)
- K: KOLONEL (colonel)
- J: MAJOOR (major)
- P: KAPITEIN (captain)
- L: LUITENANT (lieutenant)
- S: SERGEANT (sergeant)
- I: MINEUR (miner)
- R: VERKENNER (scout)
- O: SPION (spy)
- B: BOM (bomb)
How strong is it? Elo-rating
Several versions Miles battle on my Stratego-battle server.
The elo-ratings can be viewed at http://keetweej.vanheusden.com/stratego/sbelo.php.
If you would like to let your own Stratego-engine participate in this battle as well, look here for a protocol-description (really easy!).
