I don’t care if they are trying to present what the game’s premise is. What I want.. is a tabletop game that actually plays LIKE THIS. In any event, it is an upcoming RTS video game developed by Eugen Systems and published by Ubisoft (scheduled to be released in 2009 for the 360, PS3, and PC.  It's a strategy game involving the players to use decoys to trick their enemies into traps.

The release from the community site says, "R.U.S.E is new intellectual property developed by Eugen Systems. R.U.S.E. is scheduled for release on Windows PC, the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system for fiscal year 2009/2010. R.U.S.E. is a one-of-a-kind real-time strategy game that allows players to bluff their enemies to lead their nation to victory, controlling the action using views that range seamlessly from the heart of the battlefield to the full theatre of war."

.. The full theatre of war. That has certainly been the idea with games like Call of Duty, and the Tom Clancy's, well, everything. The cinematic flair that war provides. I guess a game about peace would be pretty boring. Unless it dealt with espionage and backbiting politics.. That'd be an rpg I figure. In any event, there are other videos at the community site, including two gameplay trailers and an interview from the GDC.
