ABSTRACT:
A game of strategy of chance having a board with a major surface constituting a playing surface thereof having indicia corresponding to a plurality of blocks of equal dimensions. Each of the larger blocks is subdivided into four smaller blocks. A plurality of playing pieces are provided for the players. These playing pieces are representative of moveable weapon systems that can be moved and turned on by the players upon payment of certain monetary amounts. Play money is provided for such payments. The play money is a plurality of monetary elements of different monetary values. The playing pieces also include fixed targets. The pieces representative of moveable weapon system have seven different configurations representative of seven different types of weapon systems each of which has an effective range of fire and the playing pieces corresponding to weapon systems fire upon targets constituting other weapon systems or some of the fixed targets. Firing takes place after a move. The distance fired within the effective range is determined by throwing a die. When the result on the die is within the firing range and the playing piece is a distance of small squares from a selected target piece corresponding to the result of the throw of the die the target piece is destroyed and it is removed from the board. The play money also is used to repurchase playing pieces at set prices.
