Board with Games: Tribe

 

The Gameboard. We have Africa divided into assorted zones along with three possible start points.

So the game is for 2-3 players.

Each player gets a language development card deck.

Game play: each player rolls 1d6. This is the number of starting cards you can draw from your language development deck. 

The name of your tribe is made from this initial alphabet.

Your first game piece is on the start point.

What happens during a turn?

step 1: Turn Option

A. Move an existing piece to an adjacent location.

or

B. Attack a rival on an adjacent location. This is a massacre and you take the location from your rival.

Or

C. Spawn a new piece from your start location-only if you have an existing piece on start location. The new piece is moved into an empty adjacent location.

Or

D. develop language. Roll 1d6. Draw new alphabet cards from your language deck equal in number.

 

Step 2: Check language Development. If you can spell a word from your drawn alphabet- words like farming, pyramid, canoe, boat, then your tribe has developed these. If you can spell canoe and have secured a location next to madagascar, you can move a game piece to the island next turn. If you can spell boat you can sail from any coastal location to madagascar next turn.

As your tribe occupies the map, in conflict with your opponent(s) the game continues until you gain all 26 letters of the alphabet before your rival.

Enjoy.

I got my arse kicked.
