The very best flag is (IMHO) the laser flag. "Good" flags include stealth (you don't show up on radar), cloaking (invisibility), rapid fire, machine gun, high speed, tiny (makes your tank tiny), narrow (you become very hard to hit from head on), shield, identify (allows you to see what other flags are before you pick them up), oscillation overthruster (allows you to move through obstacles), shock wave (destroys any other tanks within a certain radius), ricochet, super bullet (allows you to shoot through walls and at longer distances), guided missile and laser. Bad flags can be negated by picking up a yellow restoration flag. Bad flags stay with the player for a set amount of time before dropping, good flags can be dropped by the player at any time. "Bad" flags include blindness, radar jamming, obesity (you become a huge target), left or right turn only, momentum (can't stop moving). Each tank can only hold one flag at a time and one cannot tell what a flag is before picking it up. Planted throughout the game board are various BZFlags: white flags which can either harm you or give you special powers. To make this more exciting, the tanks are able to jump, either into the air or on top of buildings. Players can join as color coded teams, or join as part of the rogue team (every (wo)man for themselves) The point of the game is to stay alive, to keep from getting shot by the other players. When playing the game, you are in control of a tank in a 3D arena, with buildings, pyramids and other obstacles. I am not sure of the exact amount, but it has always been " enough". A large number of people can play BZFlag at the same time. BZFlag is a multiplayer 3D tank game commonly found on SGI Irix systems (a crappy Windows version is also now available).
