So I've been playing this cool little free game for a while, and given how many people on here like Minecraft, I figured I'd start a thread and see if anybody else plays this.

Ace of Spades, besides having an awesome name, is a kind of trench warfare/minecraft/TF2 hybrid thing. You have fully destructible environments and can construct your own fortifications, bridges, trenches, and anything else that you think will help you to victory. The game will run on literally anything it seems, as even my computer has no problem running it (warning, if you can't stand minecraft's graphics these will cause your eyes to melt) and best of all, is completely free and runs straight out of your browser. It takes maybe 5 minutes to download, install, and start playing the game.

It's pretty simple at the moment, but when you've got a couple of good teams on a cool map the battles can be insane. You'll have engineers building fortifications, sappers trying to dig under the enemy battlements to flank, other guys make sniper towers or hard to see pillboxes, while others are trying to snipe enemy soldiers and keep their heads down.

However, at its worst, you get tons of griefers, and kiddies switching teams to break your fortifications, before switching back.

So, does anybody else play this game? I'd love to play with some people who aren't idiots, and I think a small team of even 4 or 5 people could be awesome.
