Hey it's a Sports RTS!
Pikmin meets dodgeball!
It looks like the Red Team needs to create a ladder over the ravine so they can launch their Odama Ball (??) in to the Blue Team's stronghold. It probably also bowls over the soldiers too. I imagine the Blue Team could use the same ladder. See the shot where all the red soldiers are blocking the center? Poor guys, sacrificing themselves for the good of the battle.
Imagine playing any RTS, like Fire Emblem, but the goal is to destroy/take over the opposing team's stronghold while securing yours. All the while using the Odama Balls as a kind of weapon, like a cannon. But I bet the Odama Ball isn't just a weapon, but also a kind of flag. If you can get a straight path in to the center of the opposing stronghold and sink it (Like Air Hockey), you probably either instantly win the match or decrease the opposing team's overall health, stamina, points, etc.
This could be really cool and really addictive, it all depends on what the hell Odama is. Can someone find and post the rules for Odama (a kind of Japanese sport)?
