Plotting room suggestion

As I see the game rules are being made, the detailed rules for each unit might be written soon. At that stage I think it'll be helpful just to make an online test version of the game, that two of our members will play off against each other, maybe a third person keeps track of the movement and rolls dice perhaps, just to fine tune the mechanics and balancing.

The sequence might be:

have a place to upload images, (png format eg)
after each turn, the referee uploads the image of the battlefield, with some grid as form of coordinate system, and indicating all the directions and firing arcs etc.
then the two players specify their actions to each of their units
the referee applys those actions to the map, rolls dice if needed, and generates a new map and the battle continues.

If some of the members have friends/relatives that are interested enough in this game, then this suggestion is void.
