Then and Now
Age of Conflict was first formed November of 2003 by Jintek - a member of the Red vs. Blue contingent playing on Kings of Chaos. After a disappointing series of events on KoC showed the depth of the game's many administrative problems and the lack of sound game concepts, several sought a solution in the form of setting up a turn-based, free, strategy game of their own. Thus, Age of Conflict was founded and the game, Strife, became its launch product.
Based on the open-source Promisance engine still available today on Sourceforge, Jintek and Kull, began the enhancement of the original engine to develop a distinct feel and sense of enjoyment that is Strife.
Today, Strife only loosely resembles the version of Promisance from which it came thanks to the dedication and contributions of AoC's many players, moderators, and developers.
