Prototype War Relic

The above is a mock-up to a thought-up card game. Making up cards to test the idea is too labor intensive, and I thought it would be easier to simply code a digital version. Different armies use treasure, troops, and towers to fight over possession of ancient ruins.; It's a bit sparse and cryptic but... it was designed mostly for my personal usage.
Controls: Click to drag or choose cards during the phases.; Mouse Wheel to change the selected player or battle phase. Arrow keys or WASD do this as well.; Space and Enter advance the play phase.
The Cards: Icons on each card represent their function, upwards to three.; Soul represent how many Gear or Rook icons a player can have in their army. They appear on green cards.; Gear represent an army's fighting power, randomized each battle. They appear on red cards.; Rook represent a static battle power, but are harder to implement. They appear on blue cards.; Blade increase power in a skirmish, which determines victory.; Guard increase defense against damage, lessening losses.; Lock enable and raise ranged attack strength.; Scroll enable and raise magic use, which casts spells.
Gameplay: Phase 1: Draw Cards - three cards are dealt out to each player.; Phase 2: Trade & Ally - a card may be traded to another player in return for another; doing so creates an alliance.; Phase 3: Placement - assign cards from the hand to the stronghold for use.; Phase 4: March Armies - choose the location that troops will attack or defend.; Phase 5: Battle - square off against opposing armies at a location and select spells.; Phase 6: Casualties - discard cards according to damage received.; Phase 7: Victory - receive points based on battalions routed and excessive resources had.
Combat: Dice are rolled per Gear icon in someone's army with the following faces: a loss, two blank, two success, or a double.; The base power of a Fortress is the sum of a player's Rook icons.; The base power of either is modified by the other icons on cards: blue cards add to the Fortress while red and green add to the Relics.; Clicking on the elemental icons casts the respective spells if enough magic was obtained.; Ranged occurs first. Each army suffers the highest opponent barrage and receives damage over a faction's highest defense.; Attack follows, victory going to the highest value. Damage is lessened by defense, but at least one wound will be scored.
Spell List: Fire - increase own attack; Force - increase own defense; Thunder - provides a ranged of 3; Acid - decreases enemy defense; Magic - cancels any spell casting; Sonic - decreases enemy attack; Light - decreases enemy ranged; Wind - increases own ranged; Ice - provides a defense of 3; Shadow - cancels any ranged usage; Poison - provides an attack of 3; Dream - cancels any attacks
