Centurion

Players deploy a leader in the center of their back rank with two supporting soldiers beside it, then alternate turns drawing a new tile from a bag or moving a tile already on the board. The core mechanic uses double-sided profile tiles: each side shows a posture with specific movement and attack options (move, jump, slide, strike, etc.). After a piece acts or uses a special ability its tile is flipped to the opposite profile, changing its capabilities for subsequent turns. Games use a variety of soldier tile types and asymmetrical sets so players manage positioning, defend their own troops, and attempt to capture the opponent’s leader through tactical tile placement and profile management.
