Rumms

Ice dice freeze your opponent!

In the Kingdoms of Dragon Knights and Lion Knights you win the confrontation of dice troops if you are first to snip the opposing king off the mat.

Three playing mats are placed next to each other, showing two realms with castles and a border line in the middle.. Each faction commands 12 trolls, 4 robber barons, 2 spies, 2 ice cubes, 2 hearts, 2 dragons or lions and 1 king, all with special abilities. You can play with the suggested selection – 1 king, 4 robber barons and 12 trolls – or choose your own selection, up to a maximum cost of 40 for all. The deployment of your troops is also up to your choice, with two limitations: The king must be in the castle or in contact with the castle and at deployment you cannot touch or cross the border in the middle. You always snip one of your own dice to push opposing dice off the mat. One of your own die that is in enemy territory and shows the “captured” side can be rolled once – if is then shows “free”, it goes to your castle. If not, it is out of play. Dice that show “captured” in their own realm are simply turned to “free”.

A die outside the mat is defeated and is taken out of play. A foul – touch an opposing die or move it with arm/hand, snip several dice at once or push dice instead of snipping them – is penalized with an extra turn for the opponent. IN tournament mode you win if you are first to win three games.

Rumms is pure fun, already when selecting your dice, and especially when snipping where practice makes a fighter! To dose your strength takes a few snips! Great fun for in between, using heart dice for revival or ice dice to freeze an opponent’s die.
