Nodes

Nodes is a game of strategy and communication. Each turn you can move as many pieces (or units) as many spaces as you want. Arrange them into an impenetrable wall, or a quick-moving column. The possible strategies are infinite, but there’s a catch. Units can only move when they are within range of a node. Nodes are like kings in chess, and also act as hubs of communication. If you stray too far, your units will become stranded and your node will be vulnerable. Huddle too close, and you can get cornered. Every turn is a dance of trade-offs, balancing offense and defense, attack and retreat. Once you’ve deployed your units, move your node to end your turn and be ready to alter your strategy. After your turn, your opponent will move their units and transform the battlefield. Adapt to the situation. Experiment with new tactics. Just be sure to surround your opponent’s node before they can surround yours.
