OVERVIEW: A dice game for two players. Players create random FORCE POOLS, arrange them secretly into four Lines opposite each other, then reveal their setups and resolve combat. The leftover 5 COMMDICE may be added to a player's Line using SPECIALS [surprises]. Loser of each combat surrenders a die from that Line. After three rounds of play, the player with the most captured dice wins.
DETAILS: Each player starts with their own pool of 53 dice. Select 10 randomly and roll, repeating twice for a possible 30 dice FORCE POOL [some may be chosen over others]. Players then bid for a COMMON DICE POOL of 12 dice. Winner rolls the COMMDICE, keeps three and passes two to the loser. Players then secretly arrange their dice into four Combat Lines [hence the name]. Each opposing Line is resolved [with special dice that can remove, add or manipulate dice in their own or opponent's Line] with the loser surrendering one die. After three rounds of play, the player with the most captured dice wins.
