Gameplay Overview
Each player has an army of dwarves and catapults. There are 3 kinds of dwarves, each has a different movement pattern. You can move each of your units once per turn. Catapults are neutral, if you control units next to it, you may shoot the catapult once per turn. You can kill the opponents pieces either by moving onto their tile, or by knocking them over with a cannonball. Players take turns moving and shooting until one team is eliminated, or on some maps, the castle is captured.
