About the game
Scott Kurtz' hit comic PvP is now a game. And it's not just any game . . . it's Frag! Join Francis, Cole, Jade, Brent, and Skull as they blow each other away with flamethrowers, rocket launchers, and anything else they can get their hands on. This set features metal miniatures of the five main characters, sculpted by Richard Kerr, and 56 Frag cards illustrated by Scott Kurtz! Extra special bonus: three original comic strips . . . This is not a stand-alone game; it's a supplement for Frag, SJ Games' best-selling game of "first-person shooter" computer game mayhem, and you'll need that game to play.

Questions and answers
Frag: PvP supports 2–6 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Frag: PvP is 45 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Frag: PvP for ages 10 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Frag: PvP has a complexity rating of 2.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
Frag: PvP belongs to these categories: Fighting, Comic Book / Strip, and Video Game Theme. Its main mechanics are Dice Rolling. Categories describe the theme and setting of a game, while mechanics describe what players actually do on their turns. Each mechanic links to a catalogue hub with similar games, which helps when you want something comparable.
The credited designers of Frag: PvP are: Philip Reed. These credits come from the published game data and name the people responsible for the game’s design, not its illustrators or publishers. Designer pages on MeepleRules collect other titles by the same designers, which helps when you enjoy a game and want to find similar ones.
The catalogue lists Frag: PvP as an expansion for Frag. Expansions add new content, rules or scenarios to the base game and usually cannot be played on their own, so you need Frag to use it. Check that your edition of Frag is compatible, as some expansions were revised between editions.
