Bang! The Duel

Showdown in Wild West

Finally, Shootout for two players in a Wild West duel, introducing 24 new characters and a total of 80 cards featuring new symbols and new abilities. You control a group of gunslingers, either on the side of Law and Order or ranging with the Outlaws. You shuffle the character cards of your chosen faction and draw four of them in hand, the rest goes out of the game. The cards in each player deck are also shuffled, separately from the character cards, and you draw five cards in hand if you play the Bandit and four if you play for Law and Order. The four characters you previously drew are shuffled again and set down face-down, two are always in play, one at the front, so to say, the other as a backup. Should one character go out of play, it is replaced by the next one from the deck.

In general, the mechanisms from Bang! apply. You draw two cards and then play any number of your choice, even none, attack an opposing characters or strengthen one of yours. You can only play one Bang! card per turn and there are restriction for the use of action and equipment card as regards to character in front or at the back. Discarded cards go to a joint pile, so that later in the game you can also use cards from your opponent. You win, if you are first to eliminate all opposing characters.

Bang! as we know it, excellently adapted to a game for two players; if you are familiar with the universe of Bang! you will quickly get used to the new characters, new symbols and new abilities. If you are a newcomer to the Wild West you will need a few introductory games. All in all a good game, but you must like to topic to like the game.
