For now you have to play on the same computer but we plan in a not so long term to add an online support.
Having an AI would be a great but I am not experimented in that sort of things, but if you do and want to code one for the game contact me.

This game still lack some proper documentation but you can read the originals rule here http://anamnese.online.fr/divers/halebarde_gonfanon-eng.html (they are also avaible in french).

We use some graphismes of Wesnoth: http://www.wesnoth.org/

PyHalebarde support custom theme, we haven't write documentation about that but you can look in the theme directory to have an idea on howto made your one, it's not realy complicated.

Changes

We are pleased to announce you the release of pyHalebarde 0.2 "Kasteel".
This release offer a whole new experimental multi-player gaming support using Telepathy framework's tube system. The telepathy support is optional if you only want to play on the same computer. For this to work you will need a recent telepathy-gabble (at least 0.7.21) and Empathy (2.25.92).
To launch a network game with a friend simply launch :
./pyhalebarde --contact=friend@gmail.com
The contact should also have empathy, gabble and pyHalebarde installed and be connected via XMPP/jabber.
There is 3 new translations : Italian, Catalan and Spanish, thanks to keul and malevolant.
It also features a few bug fixes and some Units tests to assure the code quality.
