REAL WARS: WARHAMMER MEETS ARMYMEN IN AUGMENTED REALITY

Although clearly a work in progress, French designer Frantz Lasorne‘s ARToolkit built augmented reality concept appears to be some of the most sensible and achievable game design I’ve seen for the still-budding tech, and more than anything, makes me lust for an animated real-world Advance Wars.

There’s many more screens, concept art and presentation slides on the project via Lasorne’s site. Interestingly, he’s taken criticisms of its war-game hook quite heavily to heart, and posted an additional extensive thesis about the game on its vimeo page.
