Quarters Board Game project is a strategy game for two players.

Although its rules are relatively simple, it still offers some of the same opportunities for skill as in chess.

This program was originally conceived in the summer of 1986 during a study of the mini-max algorithm for chess playing computers, and was thus designed to offer some of the same type of strategies.

The game was originally written in BASIC, then ported to Turbo Pascal, then to C, and finally to Java.

The Java version is not necessarily object oriented, since it is a crude port from the C version.

BlackNova Traders project is a PHP/MySQL Web-based multi-player strategy game.

BlackNova Traders is a strategy game, loosely based on the old BBS games of Tradewars, Galactic Warzone, and Ultimate Universe, but multiplayer and Web-based. It involves space trading, conflict, and diplomacy.

Two things happend as the game grew in popularity:

-Ron was kindly asked by said hosting service to find other hosting. (at the time the game was serving over 4 million pages a month)

-The fans of the game were begging Ron to release the game as an open source project. (as feature requests and bug fixes were very slow in coming with only Ron working on the code)

So new hosting was found and the game was released as an open source project (originally under the artistic license and later under the GPL).
