Ant Wars!
Ant Wars is a RTS that takes place underground. But it has a twist. The terrain for ant wars is randomly generated so that you will never play against people who have memorized the map. This feature includes a "-restart" command that will wipe the map clean and allowing the game to restart from the beginning.
So. Lets see it in action.

You have many options for the map size and many more options soon to come.

Generation of the terrain takes about 1-2 seconds. -Updated (Old:5-10)

This map uses Food/Supplies instead of traditional Gold/Lumber.
Anyway, you can spawn 5-30 fungus collonies (-Updated) which act as food sources.

You may also choose the spawning size of begining armies. Ranging from small to huge.

Here is the game. It is unprotected so that others may learn from it. Though my triggering is pretty sloppy :p
Updates

3. Added 2 new units. Driller Ant and Creeper Ant. Also added a egg grow speed option!
4. Added Fortify Evolution, changed some UI, added a "next" feature to the evolution pool. Added worms. Added the use for supplies. (GIANT MUSHROOMS!!!!)And added Queen Pheromones Evolution. Also did some bug fixing with egg laying. Fixed Fanged Drill Evolution.
5. Added Nurse Ant which heals allies and increases the growth rate of eggs. Added Sentry Ant which acts as a tower ant. When it burrows down it take the terrain from that location and uses it as a weapon. Increased terrain generation speed by about 500%.

Nice :)

Well dunno, maybe how many workers/warriors you have, kill counts, resources or power level (something you create on your own), and so on. This way players can see their and enemy progress as well :)
