warlords card game | tui application
this project is a terminal implementation of the classic Australian game *Warlords* which I learned from my aunt and uncle during my trip to visit them in Australia. it's made 100% in java (not the island, the language) with no clankers, not even line autocomplete. it's colored using ansi terminal codes and plays pass-and-play. warlords is not really like multiplayer war, the objective is to get rid of all the cards in your hand before everyone else does, and you play consecutive ascending cards clockwise in a trick, you can play singles, pairs, etc. highest card at the end of a set gets to start. if you win, you become the WARLORD and can extract tribute from the losing player.
