Showdown! is a turn based card game. Each player starts with a leader that is out of play and five cards (max hand size). Two cards are drawn each turn and the players may play any number of soldiers and weapons on his/her turn. In order to attack another player's soldier he/she must have an attack card. The attacker chooses both his soldier and the target soldier and may disarm the target with a disarm card. The defender may respond at this point with a disarm if he/she has one. Each player in the fight rolls a die and adds up the bonuses from weapons, upgrades and one shot cards. The highest number wins with ties going to the defender.
