Heroic Battle

Every piece is a secret. Two armies face each other across the board, and neither side can see the other's ranks. Is that piece marching towards you a lowly scout or the Marshal himself? Attack and find out, or bluff and make your opponent guess.

Heroic Battle is the classic board game of hidden ranks, played on a 10×10 battlefield with 40 pieces a side. Capture the enemy flag to win. Watch out for bombs, send your miners to defuse them, and remember: even the mighty Marshal falls to the Spy.
