Players move round the map according to the throw of dice. Similar to 'Snake and Ladders' you gain or loose movement points, depending on the space your turn ends (==> see table on the board). Luckily you also may collect counters entering the big cities. The player who reaches Dover finishes the game, collecting 10 additional counters. Historical background: Horatio Herbert Kitchener, Earl Kitchener of Khartoum and Broome, 1850 - 1916, British field-marshal. His excellent reputation was used to recruit men for the 'killing fields' of WW I. He and most of his staff drowned when his ship struck a mine off Orkney.
