All six sectors of the province are under attack! Quick! Get those shields up now! Raise the Shields is a print-and-play roll-and-write game of direct conflict. Seek to destroy your neighbor's cities while simultaneously working to erect shields in an effort to protect your own cities. All players share two of the same dice while also rolling one personal die. These three dice must be assigned to three different tasks: Work sector: Where will you work on connecting your shield generator to the power plant? Shape: What shape will you fill in order to connect the generator with the power? Attack: In what sector will you attack your neighbor? Use these basic actions to erect shields, to destroy neighboring cities, and to open up new bonus abilities. Be the first to raise all your shields or destroy an enemy city and you win the game! In the solo mode, instead of attacking other players, you will assign damage to yourself. —description from the designer
