Recently started building a rules-engine for Warhammer 40k, so that I can finally play a game RTS-style in the browser. Hopefully one day I'll get to a public lobby / matchmaking (think chess.com for WH40k).
It's something I've been thinking about for years, but kept avoiding because I knew it'd be a huge commitment and I figured surely someone else would do it eventually. But I decided to finally tackle it and learn some new skills. 40k has literally 1000s of special rules across all the armies, so it's been fun designing a highly modifiable architecture.
