Objective
Each player has a secret mission — control two specific regions. Complete yours to win! Your objective can be seen on the top of the board.
Turn Order
- Reinforce first — Place all your reinforcement armies (you'll be told how many). This is mandatory before any other actions.
- Then take actions in any order — Attack, Negotiate, Support, Fortify, or End Turn. You may do multiple actions in whatever order you choose. Note: Fortify and End Turn both immediately end your turn.
- No attacks on the first turn.
Special Actions
- Negotiate — Start a private conversation with another player. Costs one negotiate token.
- Support — Send 1-2 armies to another player's territory. Costs 1 support token per army. You cannot support yourself.
Tokens
You receive 2 reinforcement armies, 2 negotiate tokens, and 2 support tokens per turn.
