Battle is implementation of the game Stratego for Zillions (Stratego is a registered trademark of Hasbro Inc).
The goal: capture your opponent's flag (you also win if your opponent doesn't have any moves left).
Rules: - A piece with the lower number beats a piece with the higher number.
- The Spy ('S') can beat only Marshal ('1') and only if Spy attacks first.
- When any piece (except a Miner - '8') strikes a Bomb, that piece is lost and removed from the board. When a Miner strikes a Bomb, the Bomb is defused and removed.
- The game starts from setting up the pieces on own half of the board. After that the opponents move pieces by the following rule.
- All pieces, except Scout ('9') move only one square up, down, left or right. Scout can move any number of squares in these directions.
More information as well as history, tips and strategies you can find on excellent Ed's Stratego site.
