Well, it was John Conway's idea and not Wolfram's.

Here's a hex one (relevant to TFT!): http://www.well.com/~dgb/hexlife.html
Here's a 3d version: http://www.ibiblio.org/e-notes/Life/Game.htm
Here's multiple shapes & 3D: http://www.cse.sc.edu/~bays/CAhomePage

With some custom rules, could one use cellular automata to simulate mass battles (i.e., with two colors)?
