I am in the process of implementing a new game in panda. I got the concept for this game from http://www.squidi.net/three/entry.php?id=106. I thought I’d share the progress here.
So far I have the base data structure to store the game state, as well as the base classes for the field, formation, and unit. Most of the work so far has been on logic and data structure and methods to manipulate the formations on the field, but I did write a simple 3d view to help visualize the grid. This game will not be open source so I won’t be releasing any code. Here is a screen shot of the board after dropping 3 pieces onto the field and advancing them towards the ‘line of scrimmage’.
Here is some output from the game in ascii:

And for fun, here is a 3d representation:
I added coloring of the tiles based on the formation they belong to.
