Cogs of War 2023

After rolling to choose sides, place an objective in the centre of the board.

Then each player takes it in turn to place two zero-point bluff counters, a one-point bluff counter, and a two-point bluff counter face down in their opponent’s half of the board. Roll off to see who places the first bluff counter. Bluff counters are treated like objectives.

At the end of the third round, turn all of the bluff counters face up.

Players score the following at the end of the battle:

• Score 2 victory points for each two-point bluff counter they control.
• Score 1 victory point for each one-point bluff counter they control.
• Score one victory point if they control the central objective.
