The StrateSition Board Game is an exciting board game where two to six players compete for strategic position, forcing opposing players to surrender. The game is fast, fun, and easy to play, but designed to teach very real principles of strategy.

The purpose of the game is to provide a fun, fast, and expandable format for learning the principles of the Science of Strategy. It provides both objective experience in terms of winning the game and drill for learning the names of various key strategic concepts.

The object of the game is to force all other players to surrender. This is done by controlling different strategic situations. Players pay a penalty when they land in a situation controlled by another player. The greater a player’s control, the heavier the penalty that other player’s pay. When players can no longer afford to pay the Penalty, they must Surrender.

THIS BOARD GAME REQUIRES ASSEMBLY. It is designed as a PDF download for easy distribution. The downloaded pages must printed, the game board assembled, the game cards cut apart. Other common items are used for the game pieces. See detailed description below.

This will cause the program to print several pages that can be assembled into a complete board. The board is designed to be printed in color, but it is not necessary for game play. After printing, paste the resulting pages onto an 18 x 18 piece of cardboard.
