BugAttack! Europameisterschaft 2008 Edition

How to play BugAttack

The Main Bugs

	Ants collecting food autonomously by explicitly selecting an ant and sending it to a different meat (using right mouse button), it will start to collect from there

	Fight fly fast fight fly, which can attack enemies, but is not very robust. Select it and send it to your enemy, it will attack them

	Fight bug not as fast as the fly, but stronger

Research

After doing research (by clicking on of the research icons) you can get either:

	Super ant acts like the normal ant, but way faster and its able to collect even more food

	Big bug the slowest, but definitly the strongest bug of all

The Ant queen

Every player has an ant queen, which is located inside the ant hill. Once all your ants are killed, she will automatically come out of the hill and try to find some food for you. Once the ant is dead, your game is over. You can explicitly take out the queen, by selecting the ant hill (you would most likely do that just to check if you enemies are somewhere in the area of your homebase).

Navigation

Navigate inside the game area by either clicking in the MiniMap or by pressing the Left, Right, Up or Down button on you keyboard. In Fullsize-Mode you can also navigate by moving your mouse to the borders of the game area. Pressing the “H”-Key on your Keyboard will immediately navigate to your homebase.

Aim of the Game

As simple as killing all the ant queens (by killing all the ants first) from your opponents.
