Sure. Is there a server where this software is installed?

Nope. It's possible to install/run locally but I guess I should write a README ...it's so many years ago that I don't know exactly. Basically it requires ruby and some lib ...I think.

Besides of this, I'd be willing to rent a small VPS (for anything, not just this) if the need arises and if there is enough interest.

But still, it's a start. Anyone interested that I revive this?
Yeah, definitely! Sounds interesting.

I can chip in with money for the dev server if needed, just shout. What I'm interested in is what this is actually written in... ruby? It looks like javascript?

Have you looked at knitters code on sandscape?

no need for a server right now, thanks. It's more time and dedication that's lacking. ;)
...but if you already have one, i might try to get it running there.

the server side is in ruby and the browser side in javascript.

I remember sandscape and knitter. We had quite a talk at the time but I must confess I didn't follow the progress. I was starting a new job at the time, so I quickly went busy and dropped my prototype here.

Basically, we went separate routes because we had incompatible views on how it should be done, technology and design wise. I also misunderstood that you wanted wtactics to be more something like a sandbox/tool rather than a usual web game.
