Every turn you roll two D6 spotted dice, and then place one of these on the board according to a set of simple rules. Do you extend your strain or do you focus on breaking apart an opponents? Do you risk expansion into a contested portion of the playing area or do you focus on strengthening, but not lengthening, your strain? Every turn has interesting and strategic decisions to be made all from a simple roll of two dice.
