| Sausage Wars is the ultimate in meat-themed, turn-based gaming.
While Sausage Wars is easy to learn, it can take many years
to become a meat master.
Sausage Wars was originally developed by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) during the height of the Cold War. The nation's top Game Theorists developed Sausage Wars to simulate the seemingly inevitable war between the USA and Soviet Union. After the collapse of the USSR, the mathematical models Sausage Wars was based on were no longer applicable to the changing global military landscape. DARPA eventually cut funding to the project and it was abandoned. After being declassified in the winter of 2007, we obtained copies of the original Sausage Wars documents the military used for conflict simulation. The mathematical models, though dated, are still impressive in their own right. We decided to make Sausage Wars accessible so that a wider audience could appreciate this unique battle system. In 2008 SausageWars.com was launched alongside a Facebook application of the same name. We hope you enjoy Sausage Wars as much as we enjoyed developing it.
