Syne-Strat 7

French abstract strategy game for 2-4 players. A chess/ draughts type game played on a board of hexagonal spaces, where the aim is to ‘secure’ the central group in order to place one of your towers there, or to capture all of the enemy towers. Securing the central group can be achieved by Majority or Totality. If aiming for a ‘Majority’: With two players you must occupy 5 of the 6 hexes in the central group. With three players you must occupy 4 of them. With four player you must occupy 3 of them If aiming for ‘Totality’: You must occupy at least one hex of the central group with the rest being completely empty of opposing pawns. To win by either of the above methods the player must place one of his towers in the central hex, which takes ‘a turn’. Victory can also be achieved by capturing all of the opposing towers thereby leaving you opponent without a tower to place in the central blank hex.
