Regenbogen
This is a rules file for Zillions of Games, a Windows program that will let you play any puzzle or strategy board game you can feed it the rules to. With Zillions-of-Games installed, this rules file will let you play this game against your computer.
A while ago, I was asking questions about the interpretation of the rules of Regenbogen to make a Zillions implementation. I now have implemented the rules as they are on the updated web page (self-distuction only with no health Pawns, no restriction on summoning and no jumping) Some comments suggest other rules. If you want to use those rules, simply hack the zrf.Click on a piece's health bar to damage it. If it has no health Pawns left, click on the piece to damage it. Self-distruct spirits by moving it to its empty health bar. Click on the health bar of a friendly piece to heal, click on the Cleric to regenerate a spell Drone. Click on an empty hex to summon a spirit.
The added sample game is a game I played against a weak Zillions AI. It should suggest that Zillions could have forced an easy draw until the end of the game.
