As Winkleink said, the Invent With Pygame stuff is awesome; tons of good hands-on examples. The author is very cool and will probably help you out or recommend a blog post if you have specific questions on how something works. Âhttp://inventwithpython.com/

For troop movement, if you're making a grid-based game, I recommend this tile map tutorial: Âhttp://sheep.art.pl/Tiled%20Map%20in%20PyGame

That will help you understand how to break up an area into 'cells'.

For combat, again, you just need to break things down:

• Characters need data for HP, Attack Power, Accuracy, Dodge Chance, Defense
• Use something like:
• # see if the attacker hits the defender (there are a LOT of ways to do this)
• hit = False
• if ( random.randint( 0, 100 ) +Âattacker.accuracy ) > defender.DodgeChance:
• hit = True
• # If the attack hits, lower the defender's HP, adjusting the damage by the defender's defense
• if hit:
• damage = attacker.attack_power - defender.defense
• if damage >= 0:
• defender.hp -= damage
• # check if the defender is dead; if so, remove hide sprite, etc.,
• if defender.hp <= 0:
• defender.kill()

I actually coded my own pong game, I forgot to add a pause menu though.
However, I still need to know how to code in 'combat' (die rolls,
causalities ETC.)
Movement of troops
and still alll the others listed above.
