Playing the Game Players take it in turns to have their turn. The Hero player goes first. When it is your turn you can play as many cards as you wish from your hand. Once you have finished playing cards you draw three cards from your deck. You can have a maximum of eight cards in your hand. You can discard cards as you wish. If your draw deck is exhausted you shuffle your discard pile to make a new deck. When the monster player discards cards he can either place the card on his discard pile or he can permanently remove it from the game – place it back in the box. This may help to make his deck more ‘efficient’. Each card you play with hero/monster symbol on allows you to perform one action with the matching hero/monster. Each card will have two symbols on it, you can only use one of them. Some Hero cards are also marked ‘Duck’ and ‘+1’. The effects of these are explained below. Actions are Move – All heroes and monsters with the exception of Bloob have a movement rate of two. However, a hero/monster must stop moving if it enters a building or rubble space. Bloob has a movement rate of one space. You may move diagonally. You cannot move through thick black lines. You can move into enemy occupied space, which immediately instigates close combat. You cannot move through an enemy occupied space. Heroes can stack, up to two per space, but will all suffer same damage if hit by a range weapon (which is actually any weapon). Monsters can stack, up to two per space, with the exception of Mechoor, Moogre and the Bloob, who can never co-exist in the same space as another monster. If a hero moves into space containing a face-down Bonus counter then he turns it face up and claims it. Monsters cannot take Bonus counters or destroy them. A hero can also pick up weapons and kit left by a dead hero. There is no limit to what a hero can carry. The only monster that can pick up a weapon is Kiddoo, as explained below. CLOSE COMBAT Close combat is a function of movement, in that for it to occur a player has to move a piece into a space occupied by an opposing piece/pieces. Both players roll 2d6. Add any modifiers as indicated by the hero/monster. The highest total wins. Both players re-roll in the case of a tie. The loser suffers one damage. The winner chooses one space to place the losing piece in. If the active player lost he can still continue his turn, which may include moving the defeated piece back into close combat. Mechoor cannot be hurt by close combat, although he can still do damage if he wins close combat. Even if you win against it decides which space to move you to.
The hero player can play one or more +1 cards after the dice have been rolled to modify his total. He can also play a ‘Duck’ card to move out of the space, without suffering any damage, after combat has been resolved. If there are more than one hero or monster in the space then the active player (who can only have a single hero/monster in the space) chooses one to fight first. If he wins the first fight he then fights the second hero/monster. If he wins that he can fight the remaining hero/monster. If a hero is killed in close combat then he is removed from the board and his weapons/kit are placed in the space the combat took place in. However, if a hero was killed by a Bloob then his weapons and kit are also lost (absorbed by Bloob). SWAPPING WEAPONS If two or more heroes are in the same space they can freely swap weapons and equipment. This is not an action. There is no upper limit to what a hero can carry. Fire– Select one weapon to use. Each weapon counter has a range and a damage value. In a range attack you area always looking to roll a total of 7+ on two dice. Any weapon counter that is underlined is one-use only and should be discarded after use. LINE OF SIGHT – To use a range weapon you must have a line of sight from the hero/monster that is firing to the target. A line of sight is always a straight line. LOS is blocked by buildings, Mechoor, and Moogre. Heroes and other monsters do not block LOS. Rubble will block LOS unless target is Mechoor or Moogre. You can fire into a building space, just not through one. Heroes can fire from a corner, so they can choose to have the line of sight start from any corner of the space they occupy, but it is still traced to the centre of the target space. A monster’s line of sight must always be traced from the centre of its space, so no firing from corners. Modifiers are: Target in building -2 Target in rubble -1 If the target is hit then damage cubes (black cubes) are placed in the monster/hero box. The amount of damage that a monster/hero can take is shown in the black box. If this level is reached or exceeded then the monster/hero is eliminated. Remove monster/hero counter from board. Any weapons/kit belonging to a hero are placed in the space. After rolling the dice the hero player can play one or more +1 cards to modify his score. If the monster player successfully hits a hero the hero player can play a ‘Duck’ card to move the hero to an adjacent space (including diagonally) and avoid taking an damage. If hero killed place all equipment in space he occupied.
