The goal is to reduce the enemy's Glory to zero before they do the same, creating a back-and-forth race to the bottom.

Combat is resolved with a single roll of colored dice, with terrain and unit Special Abilities affecting the outcome. Simple icons on the dice show the results, making it easy to learn and play. With its easy-to-learn rules and 60-minute playtime, Ars Victor is a great choice for fans of science fiction and wargames looking for a fun and intense gaming experience.
