Air, Land & Sea Game

In the Theatres of war, battles take place on Land, In the Air and On the Sea.  To win the game, players must accumulate victory points over a series of battle rounds to become the first Supreme Commander with 12 points. Do you have the tactical skill and ingenuity to predict the outcome and withdraw your troops early enough when you predict a loss for your team to minimize your opponent’s victory points?  Or, will you fight on to the bitter end with surprise moves and the perseverance to claim a huge victory? 

Play this game with three theatre boards depicting air, land, and sea as well as six matching player cards for each of these theaters. Players start with 6 randomly dealt cards and take turns with one of three actions:  1.) Deploy – Play a card face-up matching its corresponding theatre.  Each card has point values from 1-6 and some have tactical abilities used when played or on an ongoing basis during the battle.  2.) Improvise – Play a card facedown to any theatre.  These cards are wild and worth 2 points. 3.) Withdraw – The earliest assessment of a loss benefits a surrender from battle as the enemy earns the fewest points when you withdraw with more cards remaining in your hand.  This ends the battle and the winning player gains victory points depicted on their supreme commander card.

If both players have placed all cards in their hand into a battle theatre without a withdrawal, the battle ends and the player who controls the most theatres based on their total point value in each, wins the battle with six victory points.  Players set up and continue with the next battle.  Once a player accumulates 12 total victory points, they win the game! For two players with a 20-minute game time.
