1930 · De La Rue
A two-player game using the principles of L'Attaque (and, later, games such as Stratego) where your playing pieces are hidden after secret, initial placement and then moved - turn by turn - to try and 'take' your opponent's pieces.
When attacking, both Attacker and Defender are revealed and the piece with the higher value wins - removing the other from play. Ties mean the pieces remain in situ.
The ultimate goal is to take your opponent's "Treasure" piece before they take yours!
