Description Edit | History

VIKTORY II builds upon its predecessor, VIKTORY, also by Morrison Games.

A light wargame that lasts 1-4 hours, VIKTORY II features simple rules, 861 individual game components, and an aggressive style of play that avoids inaction and turtling.

VIKTORY II is loosely based on 19th century warfare and supports up to eight players fighting for game domination, either through direct player elimination or alternately through player subjugation.

Each player has custom designed infantry, cavalry, artillery and frigate units waging war upon a modular hex map comprised of mountain, forest, plains, grassland, and water hexes. The modular map is scalable and customizable, allowing larger or smaller maps to be played for either longer or shorter games.

During the game, players explore the map by moving units and building towns and cities. When they encounter other players, fighting begins. Combat is fought through dice rolling based upon the number of different types of units engaged in battle, the terrain being fought upon, and the presence of a town or city.

The fighting units are maintained by towns and cities through a unique support system, and gained or lost as their supporting towns and cities are built or captured.

4 Viktory II, Secret Missions
I've devised a variant utilizing 'Secret Mission' cards (similar to Nexus Ops). When you achieve the goal of a card, you play it for the points indicated. Use normal rules, except for these additions: At the beginning of the game, each player receives 1 "secret mission" card. You may only play cards during your turn. You may play any number of blue cards at any time that you meet the criteria; you may play only one red card per battle WON. You may discard 1 card before a battle to gain an additional pre-battle bombardment dice. - only pre-battle, not long-range bombardment - may use even if there are no artillery/frigates involved - may use as many cards as you wish (1 card=1 dice ) You may discard 2 cards to increase any unit's movement by 1 movement-point. At the end of your...

3 Viktory II Replacement Player Aids in Full Color
To replace the original, b&w paper player aids. These aids are higher-quality, full-color versions of what came with the game -- also color co-ordinated for each color, e.g. the black player has a grey background and black lettering, the purple player has purple lettering with a lavender background. Print them out on label paper and put them on black mat-board! (I like a 45% print size, but you can have bigger or smaller)
