Ogre

Ogre is a 2D turn-based strategy game, and a direct computer conversion of Steve Jackson's board game of supertanks going against conventional infantry with howitzers. It plays exactly like the board game - on a hex-based board one player controls ordinary military units (soldiers, tanks etc.), and defends against the second player, who controls a supertank named "Ogre" - Ogre is very powerful, and can easily destroy normal weaponry and ground forces.

Released 31 December 1986 for Atari 8-bit, Apple II, MSX and Mac by Origin and Origin, published by SystemSoft. Currently $2.18 on Store, 91% below list.
