  • Dragons Rules
    ® Supplemental Rules Welcome to the world of Diceland: Dragons. This set contains twelve new dice in four teams, and is a self-contained set ideal for up to 4 players. The four teams are Meleinn (Ice, 21 points); N’talii (Storm, 20 points); Suarani (Lava, 22 points); and Timaliik (Swamp, 23 Points). These armies are ancient sworn enemies, at least until you decide to mix and match them. Then they’re the best of friends. Game Overview Diceland® is a fast-playing dice game with elements of luck, strategy, and skill, played with armies of paper 8-sided dice. This is a supplemental rules sheet with a brief review of the basic rules and full details on the new abilities in this set. Complete rules can be found in any Diceland boxed set (we recommend Diceland: Space), or as a free download from www.diceland.com. Army Construction Players may use the four pre-built teams, or they may construct armies of up to 30 points total. If the dice are all from the same team, an army can have as many as 30+X points, where X is the value of the smallest die. The dice in Diceland: Dragons are non-unique, which means that you can use multi- ple copies of each die in your army, and multiples of the same die can be in play. Basic Gameplay The player with the smallest team (lowest total point value) decides who will go first. If the armies have the same total value, determine randomly who will go first. The first player places one die in the center of the table, in any orientation.

  • Rules for TAK Created December 30, 2014 Last Update March 9 2016
    Rules for TAK Created December 30, 2014 Last Update March 9 2016 Design: James Ernest and Patrick Rothfuss Testers: Boyan Radakovich, Paul Peterson, Rick Fish, Jeff Morrow, Jeff Wilcox, and Joe Kisenwether. Notes: This is an open beta version of Tak, an abstract board game designed by James Ernest and Patrick Rothfuss. Tak was first described in Rothfuss’ The Wise Man’s Fear (2011). We are circulating the unfinished rules to help players make improvements to the game. We will run a Kickstarter for the final game in April 2016. Your feedback is welcome, and it’s important to treat this game as a work in progress. We like it very much, but nothing is final. Summary: Tak is an abstract strategy game for two players. These rules describe the “modern” version, with some references to rules variants from antiquity. Board: The game board is divided into squares, similar to chess or go. The board can be any size from 3x3 to 8x8 or larger, but the game is most commonly played 5x5 or 6x6. The 3x3 game is trivially simple, and the 4x4 game is typically reserved for children and new players. 7x7 is rarely played, but 8x8 is sometimes considered the “Master’s Game.” No Diagonals: Spaces on the board are connected only by their edges. In Tak, things are not adjacent diagonally, and pieces do not move diagonally. Pieces: Each player has several normal stones and one special stone, which is called the capital or “capstone.” The number of pieces on each side differs with the size of the board: Size of Board: 3x3 4x4 5x5 6x6 7x7 8x8 Normal Pieces: 10 15 21 30 40 50 Capstones: 0 0 1 1 ? 2 Stones can be laid flat or stood on end.

  • Rules Are Designed to Work for As Many As Six Card, Spin It, and (Having Popped Nothing) Finish Your Turn
    On Every Turn Each turn consists of several steps. The details of each step are given later, but this short reference list is all you will normally need. • Flip: Flip one facedown card faceup, if you can. • Spin: Spin one faceup card 180°. If the board is open (with some facedown cards), you can spin whatever you like. If the board is closed (all faceup), you must make a spin that will pop something. If you can’t pop a card on a closed board, the board is frozen. In this case, shuffle the board and rebuild it facedown, then restart your turn. • Check: Check around the edges of the card you’ve spun. If any Welcome! symbols on that card match the neighboring cards, then you “pop” the Girl Genius is a web comic of adventure, romance, and mad card(s) with more symbols. (Popping is defined below.)
