Stratego Dice Game

Battles of dice versus dice

Stratego - not on a board but played with a total of 12 dice. Each player holds five dice of a color, blue or red. Those dice are named after the rank symbol that they carry three times. Ranks in the game are Marshal, General, Miner, Scout, Spy, Bomb and Flag. The Marshal dice shows the Marshal (10) three times, twice the Scout (2) and the flag. General Die: Three times the General (9), twice the Scout (2) and the flag. Miner Die: Three times the Miner (3), twice the Scout (2) and the Flag once. Spy Die: Three times the Spy (1), twice the Scout (2) and the flag once. Bomb Die: Each player also has one scoring die, showing values 0 to 5. Those scoring dice are set out at the start of the game showing value 0. You and your opponent both secretly choose one of your dice and roll it - then the roll is scored: Marshal defeats General defeats Miner defeats Spy defeats the Marshal. A bomb defeats everything but the Miner, the Miner defeats the bomb. If you roll a Scout, you may choose another die and both players roll again. If you roll a flag, you lose the battle. If both players roll the same symbol, the battle ends in a draw. After each battle both dice involved are set aside, even when the battle ended in a draw, and both players choose a die for the next confrontation. For each battle you win you turn up your scoring dice by one. If you win five battles, you win the game.

Stratego light, quick and simple - a very felicitous implementation of the classic game using dice, nice for on the road or in-between games, playable where and when you like, featuring simple rules and an attractive design.
