ArmyEngine was written to be simple and modular, and was developed in order to get a better understanding of design principles behind game design.

The basic game design pattern used to develop this engine was the Entity-Component-System pattern. The full approach is outlined in this article http://piemaster.net/2011/07/entity-component-artemis/

For a basic understanding, the engine consists of entities, and these entities are assigned components that describe what those entities can do.
