Play the role of chief commander and set course to the heart of the battle. Your goal is to capture the enemy's flag while still protecting yours. Organize a secret formation with the 40 different figures at your disposal. Make sure your opponent doesn't know how you organized your army to defend the flag. But make your training also capable of generating attack opportunities. Let the strategic battle begin. You need to test your enemy's strength, and if you consider your formation strong enough, it's time to attack. Open the box and start playing instantly.

These games are the same. If you have any questions, I will be glad to help. **Q: Does this come with the classic pawns?** A: Hi. Yes, the Galt Toys version comes with the classic pawns, so no need to apply stickers. This version also comes with a new, quick-play training mission, using only the Marshal, the flag, one Lieutenant, two Miners, two Scouts, two Bombs, and the Spy. All instructions are in English, French, and Spanish. **Q: What is the purpose of the envelopes?** A: Its a good game. **Q: size of playing board?** A: I gave it as a gift, so I can't measure it. As I remember, the board is about the same size as the original version. The pieces are a bit larger, though. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by R***A on 29 January 2024* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by A***R on 9 July 2025* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by C***Y on 12 April 2026* ## Frequently Bought Together - Jumbo, Stratego - Original, Strategy Board Game, 2 Players, Ages 8 Year Plus - Risk Board Game, Strategy Games for 2-5 Players, Strategy Board Games for Teens, Adults, and Family, War Games, Ages 10 and Up - Battleship Classic Board Game | Strategy Games for Kids and Adults | Ages 7+ | 2 Players | Fun Kids Games | Family Games --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/596285484-strategy-board-game-2-players-ages-8-and-up](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/596285484-strategy-board-game-2-players-ages-8-and-up) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-06-23*
