Match of the Century

You may play only the side showing your current colour face up. Players switch colours each game, so the same card may show a different piece for you next game (p. 5).

You may add up to 2 pawns from your personal reserve when you play a card; each pawn adds +1 strength (pp. 6–7).

The exchange is tied: neither player uses a piece effect, and no advantage is gained. The game then continues unless the game-ending condition is met (p. 7).

In the first exchange, the player with white has the initiative. In later exchanges, it goes to the previous exchange’s winner; after a tie, it goes to the player who did not have the initiative in that exchange (p. 6).

No. After each exchange, add the advantage values of the still-empty sections; if that total is less than the advantage either player already has, the game ends. Otherwise, play another exchange, up to four in total (p. 7).

Reshuffle your discard pile into a new deck and continue drawing; after you finish drawing, lose 1 mental endurance. If your hand is over its current limit, discard down to that limit (p. 9).
