The game: one player or team plays the “top” army and the other plays the “bottom.” The top army owns the numbers 11, 14, 9, 12, 5, 20, 1, 18, 4, and 13 while the bottom has 6, 10, 15, 2, 17, 3, 19, 7, 16 and 8. These numbers serve as the soldiers of the warring armies. The players try to kill each other’s soldiers by targeting the numbers on the board. To win, a player must eliminate all of the opponent’s soldiers.

The numbers for every player are recorded on the scoreboard. Every time a number is hit, it is marked X. A player may kill his own soldiers so he should be careful not to land darts on his numbers.

The game can be made more difficult by designating particular portions of the numbers to be hit in order to kill a soldier. For example, the players may agree to hit only the doubles or triples ring to kill a soldier.
