MapView Overview

As the flagship product of MotCreations, the MapView Virtual Gaming System™ brings PBEM to a new level of power and ease of use.  Through the use of features such as drag-n-drop icons, text comments, and movement arrows you can play your favorite strategy/war/board games more easily than you ever thought possible. 

 

Features Include:
Graphical Game Board
Tracks all of your pieces. No longer do you need to keep your board game set up for days or weeks at a time.
Simple Drag-and-Drop Unit Movement
Game pieces are placed onto and moved around the map using standard drag-and-drop.  Colored effects let you know which pieces you've moved already.
Right-Click and Merge-Drop Unit Editing
Game pieces are modified using standard right-click context menus.  Pieces with quantities associated with them can incremented, decremented, or be split into smaller groups.  They can also be merged simply by dropping stacks onto each other.
Turn History
Each phase or turn of the game is stored, and can be accessed with a simple click of a tab.  Your entire game is stored in a single compressed file for easy emailing.
Map Text
Each turn has its own Map Text area that allows you to include any amount of textual information.  Additionally, text commands can be added directly to the map.
Movement Arrows
Arrows can be placed on the map to indicate the movement of your pieces.  In some games, the use of Movement Arrows can eliminate the need for textual annotation.
Multiple Game Support
Many games can be played all with the same user interface.  And besides the many available commercial games supported by MapView, anyone can create their own game modules!
