Soldiers Of Fortune

Wage war to muster the most powerful army by creating platoons of troops. As you create platoons, you’ll stack them in front of you in an alternating pattern. Watch out! These troops are mercenaries and your top platoon can be stolen by your opponents if they have a matching troop or a wild card. Every time a platoon is stolen its power grows. Will you build the most powerful army, or be overrun by your opponents? On your turn you MUST perform one of four possible actions (make a platoon from your hand, make a platoon from the discard pile, attempt to steal a platoon from an opponent, or discard and draw new cards). On your turn you MAY play one tactic card. Tactics are powerful cards that could give you a small advantage or completely change the course of the game. The player with the most powerful army at the end of the game wins. —description from the designer
