[8] Gaming Modes

The mode of your game describes how you keep a track of positions, placement, and orientation of the characters, objects, and vehicles in your game. Your mode really depends upon personal choice as well as environment: the choices of gaming type for an online MUSH are different from playing on a table top.

To put it simply, your gaming mode indicates whether or not you are using a map to keep track of the location and facing of game units, and what scale that map is. Abstract gaming is more conceptual, as no map is used. Tactical uses a scale map, for detailed tracking of people and vehicles.
