Graphical styles

A graphic style is a set of reusable appearance attributes. Graphic styles allow you to quickly change the look of an object; for example, you can change its fill and stroke color, alter its transparency, and apply effects in one step. All the changes you apply with graphic styles are completely reversible.

You can apply graphic styles to objects, groups, and layers. When you apply a graphic style to a group or layer, every object in the group or layer takes on the attributes of the graphic style

is a type of non-photorealistic rendering designed to make 3-D computer graphics appear to be flat.

Cel-shading is often used to imitate the style of a comic books or cartoons.

Cels (short for celluloid),

Conventional (smooth) lighting values are considered for each pixel and then quantized to a small number of isolated shades to create the characteristic flat look.

where the shadows and highlights appear more like blocks of colour rather than mixed in a smooth way

Abstract

The most strict definition of an abstract strategy game requires that it cannot have random elements or hidden information.

Some abstract strategy games have multiple starting positions of which it is required that one be randomly determined.

Some games, such as Arimaa and DVONN, have the players build the starting position in a separate initial phase which itself conforms strictly to abstract strategy game principles
