How It Plays

Dice Rolling

You roll dice to determine outcomes — there's always that thrilling moment of suspense before they land!

Secret Unit Deployment

You place your units face-down so opponents don't know what you've got — the reveal is always exciting.

About This Game

Swords & Wizardry is a fantasy version of Stratego. However unlike Stratego pieces are not numbered, to show their relative strength, to win 'combat' a combat table is referred to. Also the wizard is a special piece with extra powers.
