Decades ago, while playing Galac-Tac, I wrote a gaming assistant program to help me play. This has morphed over the years to be quite a valuable tool with customizable and interactive color maps, turn history tracking, order entry and checking, empire analysis reports, and much more. However, Midgard has never had any such thing available for players. Since we'd all like to encourage more players to play, this would be a great thing to have available to everyone.
So, if you feel like a real programming and gaming challenge, I invite anyone to write their own Midgard "helper" program, either for desktop/laptop PCs or for phones/tablets. Anyone who thinks they've come up with something useful is welcome to provide it for publication it on the Talisman Games web site for you so other players can download and use it. All of the turn information is available in XML format so you don't have to do any interpretation of formatted HTML to get raw data into your system.
Be thinking about the possibilities and see what your imagination might be able to come up with!
