I would actually be up for a game against a more experienced player, so far my only games have been against friends and family. I would like to see how the game is played by an experienced player.

Is that true or is this a wind-up?

The system is pretty abstract, so I don't think it would be a problem. Sci-fi Manouvre? :)

BTW, the moment GMT starts releasing serious Science Fiction or Fantasy wargames, they'll become my favorite current games company :D

After playing it a bit I've got the idea that, most of lots of other games, Manouvre would be perfect for a "fantasy translation".

It is just me?

Hey, GMT... what about a fantasy edition of the game? With 8 races?

I have to agree that this is not the nicest of there games. But I own a few that are far more attractive. Twilight Struggle, C&C, Combat Commander to name a few.

Thanks, everyone, for the rsponses. That's how we've been playing it, but I wanted to get other opinions. The logic seems to be there in the sequence of play, but 2.3 contradicts. Maybe. Depending on how one reads rules. :D

I'd agree in Section 2.3 it could be written a little more clearly to explicitly state it, but in Section 4 "Sequence of Play" it does explicitly state under DRAW PHASE "The Active Player draws sufficient cards to bring his hand back to 5 cards. See rule 2.3 to see what happens when one or both players' draw decks are exhausted."

The only way for the active player to refill his hand when the remaining cards left in the deck cannot do that is to shuffle up and draw to fill. Then you wander back to Section 2.3 to see what the effects of going thru your first deck are, either as the first side to do it or as the second side to do it.

I think the "How to Win" Section should of been later in the rules.

Anyway Robert I hope this gives you a satisfactory answer to your question.

I agree with the answer above, but the OP is correct that it's not clearly stated in the rules.

Robert,

According to some messages over at Consimworld (left you a reply there as well) the second player to draw down his deck would get to reshuffle and draw to a full hand. The game then continues until the end of the current game turn at which point the game ends.

Goshawk — Sat, 23 May 2009 02:53:54 +0000

In Manoeuvre, when the second player hits the end of their deck (after the other player has already exhausted their deck and shuffled), the game "ends at the conclusion of the current turn." If the second player cannot refill his hand to 5 cards, does he reshuffle his draw pile and draw to the 5 count? Since it is explicit that the first player reshuffles, is it safe to infer the second player is simply SOL if the last card drawn does not refill his hand to 5?

Thanks! Rob

From the rules:

2.3 When the Day Ends
In this era, battles did not normally take place after sunset. To represent the end of the day, the game ends at the end of the Game Turn when both players have drawn their last card from their first Action Deck. The game does not end when just one player has drawn the last card in their first Action Deck. That player reshuffles all their discards to form a new Action Deck and the game continues. This player may reshuffle their Action Deck as many times as necessary. Once the other player draws the last card from their first Action Deck, the game is over at the end of the current Game Turn.
