ABSTRACT:
A board game for two or more participants comprises a game board overlaid with a grid pattern to define a plurality of sections. Certain sections on the game board are uniquely identified to designate a docking bay and an entering square for each of four participants. Certain sections on the game board are also uniquely identified to designate asteroids. Each participant receives initially a set of game pieces, each set of game pieces including five spaceships and ten bombs. At a maximum, two bombs are mountable onto an associated ship. The board game also comprises a set of dice for indicating the amount of movement of a ship on prescribed sections of the game board. The board game further comprises a manually operable stop watch for indicating a time interval related to the amount of movement on the game board of a bomb from the ship on which the bomb is mounted toward a ship of an opponent. The object of the game is to be the participant who has the last remaining spaceship on the game board. Spaceships are either removed from the game board by shooting down an opponent's spaceship with a bomb or by crashing a spaceship into an asteroid or docking bay.
