Chespel
Chess Meets Deck-Building in Fantasy Pitch Battles!
What it does
Chespel is a free-to-play browser-based tactical war game that blends the strategic depth of chess with the variety of a deck-building card game. What makes it different: Unlike traditional strategy games that lock you into one playstyle, Chespel gives you 10 unique factions built with units, equipment, and action cards. Armies take the field of battle on one of 10 dynamic maps that make every game a new adventure! Fast games: A match takes 10–20 minutes!

If you try it, let me know what you think. I'm always looking for new games or new features to add :)

Hi HN, I've been building a browser-based multiplayer strategy game called Borderhold. Matches run on large maps designed for hundreds of players. Players expand territory, attack neighbors, and adapt as borders shift across the map. You can put buildings down, build ships, and launch nukes. The main thing I wanted to explore was scale: most strategy games are small matches, modest maps, or modest player counts, but here maps are large and game works well with hundreds of players.
