A not too serious game about destroying the swordmaster. There are four ways to win this game: discover that the swordmaster hides his identity, hang him, hire ninjas to kill a player, collect a bunch of swords, or try your luck with the dice.
To play, you need a die (preferably two) and a number of counters or markers.
Inspired by Kryptopol and Middle Eastern Confrontation.
Basic Rules
Each player draws seven cards. Rock-Paper-Scissors-(Spock-Scissors) to decide who plays first. At the beginning of your turn, draw a card. During your turn, you may play/use any number of free actions, at most one action, and at most one thing, in any order. There is no maximum hand size.
Special Rules
There's one special kind of action: the free action. Free actions can be played on opponents' turns- In particular, a free action be played in response to another player's action and take effect before that action. An ordinary action can however not in turn be played in response to and take effect before a free action, even if it is your turn. "At the beginning of your turn" is before you draw a card.
Every unit has a combat strength as a corner value and an implicit attack action. This is a free action that can be used once during each of your turns. To use it, you must target a unit in play. Each owner rolls a number of dice equal to the combat strength of their unit. The player with highest score wins and destroys the other unit. At a tie, nothing happens. Since attacks are just free attacks, actions and things are not restricted to be played before or after combat.
To be eliminated is to lose the game. Remaining players may still play for the victory. To kill someone is to eliminate a player. Destroying a unit, even through combat, is not to kill someone. Actions on things cannot be used on the same turn the thing was played.
