Risk G.I. JOE: Special Missions

Description

In RISK G.I. JOE: Special Missions, 2-4 players each join one of two factions — G.I. Joe or Cobra — and seek to complete missions or resolve plots in an effort to score the most objective points (OP) after three rounds of play. One of five master scenarios guides the action, leading to conflicts erupting in hotspots around the world. The game includes multiple unit types — GIs, Skystrikers, Wolverines, Cobra Troopers, Rattlers, and H.I.S.S. — with variable movement, initiative, and battle bonuses, and units defeated in battle are only temporarily lost, cycling back into play over time. Action cards create new avenues for moving and gaining units not present in the traditional game, and scenario and objective cards will influence player strategy.
