Publisher's Description of Stratego Game (Original)
Stratego Original: Attack and capture the flag!
Time and
again, Lieutenant Jacques Cavalier attempts to conquer the Redcoats'
flag with his troops. The Bluecoat army has been significantly weakened,
but the men will not give up. Are you ready to help the Lieutenant to
defeat the Redcoat army? The Bluecoats are counting on a brilliant
strategist like you!
The aim of this classic board game is to
capture the enemy's flag while defending your own flag. Luckily, you are
not alone; you have an entire army at your disposal, along with a
seductive spy and six bombs. But before the exciting battle begins, you
have to come up with a secret formation for your troops. And then you
must attack to capture the flag. The ranks of the playing pieces
determine whether or not you win or have to leave the battlefield. But
bigger dangers lurk; if one of your playing pieces touches a bomb, it's
all over for you! Are you brave enough for endless strategic playing
pleasure? If so, head off to battle with this revamped version of
Stratego!
