EXPERIENCE THE THRILL OF BATTLE

Battle Line is a dynamic two-player card game set during the era of Alexander the Great, brought to you by GMT Games. In this strategic game, players engage in combat using 60 full-color cards that illustrate key military formations of the time, including War Elephants, Heavy Cavalry, and Phalanx formations.

TACTICS AND STRATEGY

In addition to the formation cards, Battle Line includes 10 full-color tactics wildcards, offering players additional flexibility and strategic options. These wildcards ensure that every battle presents a unique challenge, amplifying the intensity of each encounter.

WINNING THROUGH STRATEGIC FORMATION

A typical game of Battle Line lasts approximately 30 minutes. The objective is to construct formidable formations on your side of the battlefield that surpass those of your opponent. Victory is claimed by the player who secures either 5 out of 9 battle flags or achieves a breakthrough through capturing three adjacent flags.

ENHANCED GAMEPLAY EXPERIENCE

Battle Line builds on Reiner Knizia's original design, known as Shotten-Totten, by expanding the tactical possibilities and deepening the player's strategic choices. Each card play is a crucial decision that can alter the course of the battle.

UNLEASH THE GREATNESS OF YOUR FORCES

As you lead your forces, consider how to deploy your War Elephants to breach the enemy line, position Alexander for a decisive flag capture, or utilize your Companion cavalry to bolster your defenses. Every decision matters as you navigate the battlefield and respond to your opponent's maneuvers.

Immerse yourself in the strategies of warfare and command your forces wisely to achieve victory.
