Overview

The game plays over a series of turns, until an HQ is captured by a Troop, a player gains a majority of Medals through region control, or a player cannot perform any more actions.

Each player has 24 troops--8 types with 3 of each.

Troops

Name	Picture	Strength	Description	Notes
Kwak		X	Kwak has no effect, but may be placed on top of any enemy Troop. However, any enemy Troop may also cover it.
Skully		1	You may draw 2 Troops from your reserve.	If you already have 7 Troops on your rack, you draw only one.
Capn		2	You may place 1 extra Troop on the Terrain and apply its effect.	Effects of Troops placed are triggered first, then any special base effects.
Jumbo		3	You may choose 1 visible enemy Troop (adjacent to Jumbo) and discard it face up.	Troops are adjacent if connected by a single section of path.
Hook		4	You may ignore the connection rule and place Hook on any base whether or not it is connected to your H.Q.	To place Hook on the enemy HQ (which is not a base), it must be connected to your HQ by your troops.
XB-42		5	You may take, at random, 1 Troop from your opponent's rack and discard it face up.
Star		6	You may draw 1 Troop from your reserve and place it on your rack.
Roxy		7	No effect.

Your Turn

You can either:

Draw 2 Troops from your reserve and place them on your rack. Your rack can hold up to 8 Troops maximum

or

Play 1 troop from your rack onto a space on the battlefield. You can place it anywhere that fulfills the following conditions:

• An empty base that is connected to your HQ (this means you must always follow a continuous path from your HQ (starting point) to the troop you are placing, passing only through bases you occupy)
• A base occupied by any of your troops
• A base occupied by an enemy troop with a lower strength than yours
• Your opponent's HQ. (You cannot place a troop on your own HQ)

Each troop has an effect that triggers after placement.

If the troop was placed on a special base with an effect that triggers after the troop's effect triggers.

If you control a region by occupying all the bases surrounding it, the player claims the medal(s) in that area.
