MONSTER ZONE

Welcome to Aloris, once a land inhabited by humans and animals now overrun by monsters and magic. To keep the peace, the human race started to create summoners, selected individuals that capture and tame monsters in hopes to bring the number of monsters down, however, over time the goal changed. Summoners still capture monsters, as that is their duty, but now they use those monsters to battle other summoners in intense battles. This game they made now goes by MONSTER ZONE.

Monster zone is a dice based monster card game! Battle with your friends to see whose monsters are stronger! All you have to do is deplete your opponents LP/DP before they deplete yours!

1. Create a deck of 40-60 cards (note: you can only have 2 of every card) and set up you and your opponents LP and DP, which should be between 500-1500.
2. Roll a d6 to decide who goes first. The highest number goes first.
3. Draw 1 card at the beginning of every turn.
4. Start the beginning phase by setting up your monster and spell/trap cards! (note: you can have between 1-6 cards in each zone on the field at a time)
5. Then the battle phase where you strategize who you should attack, but both players cannot attack on the first turn.
6. After that is the end phase where you can place more spells/traps if you need to but at this point you cannot summon any new monsters or use any effects or spells. Then tell the other play you’ve ended your turn, after that the next player begins their turn!

It continues to go on like this for a while until one player either loses all of their LP or a player runs out of cards in their deck. Of course there's a lot more that goes into it but you can always read the rules here!

Types of Cards

Defense: Defense cards are used to protect a player's DP, while a defense card is on the field no other card ,except the defense cards, can be attacked as long as a player has DP. Furthermore, any damage their defense type makes is only worth half damage as long as a player has DP. So if the opponent has DP and one of their monsters are attacked by a defense monster it's only worth half, however once the opponent runs out of DP defense cards will then attack for full damage.

Attack: These cards usually require a roll to use their attack. These cards don’t have any special purpose aside from well..attacking! These cards will be your main hitters to win the game!

Effect: These cards usually have effects that don't require a roll, they help keep your cards safe and keep you in the game longer! 

Battling

If monsters want to attack there are 2 ways a monster can do that: Directly or through card effect.

If a monster attacks with a card effect then the star count is by-passed, meaning most monsters can be attacked despite their star count (note:each star is worth 10hp)

If a monster directly attacks that can go a few different ways: - Unordered listIf both monsters have equal star counts then both are destroyed - If a monster with higher stars attacks a lower star monster the monster is destroyed and whatever damage is left is taken out of the players LP or DP - If a lower star monster attacks a higher star monster (depending on the circumstance) then the lower monster IS destroyed but also takes HP from the card it attacks (If a 3 star attacked a 7 star then the 7 star would go down to 4 stars) and neither player takes damage. - If there are NO monsters on the field then you can attack the player directly! Doing full damage!
