About the game
In Intelliwar, players will employ all their tactical and strategic skills to claim their rightful place on the Silver Throne. To do that, you will move units around the board, activate special abilities, upgrade your forces, and strike with calculated attacks. The goal is to eliminate the enemy Prince or wipe out all enemy units except the Prince. The first player to fulfill at least one of these two victory conditions wins. At the beginning of the game, units are drafted. All of them are unique, so choose carefully! On their turn, a player places Activation tokens on two different Unit Cards that don’t have Activation Tokens, with the player-colored side facing up. When you place an Activation Token on a card with the player-colored side up, you “activate” this unit. On a turn, each Unit may perform up to 2 of the following actions: Move, Attack, or Use a Special Ability. A player immediately wins the game when they fulfill at least one of the following victory conditions: eliminate the Enemy Prince OR eliminate all the enemy Unit Tokens except for the Prince. —description from the publisher
