Wargame Construction Set is a computer wargame published in 1986 by Strategic Simulations, Inc. Developed by Roger Damon it allows the player to construct, edit and play customizable wargame scenarios.
The game lets players design and play a wide variety of wargames - from simple to complex. Players start by drawing maps and placing geographical features and buildings in any arrangement and scale desired. There are several different levels of combat - from man-to-man engagements to large scale strategic campaigns. Each unit can be given different attributes such as unit type, weapon type and firepower, movement and strength points.
Players are able to create scenarios from many different periods of military history, ranging from spears and catapults to modern missiles and tanks. Players are also given the ability to create different genres of wargames including sword and sorcery fantasies or science fiction battles.
The game comes with eight premade ready-to-play scenarios which can be modified or played as-is.
