I haven't seen a game like this before. Personally, I think the soldier mechanic makes it fun and the 7th turn adjustments also allow for some cool mechanics.
3 arenas, each with 2 conflict points. Both players play 1 - 2 - 1 - 2 - 1 - 2 cards each turn (over 6 turns) which resolve simultaneously at the end of each turn.
There are two types of cards - commanders and soldiers.
Commander cards have special abilities and can only be played in the center triangle of each arena.
Soldier cards have arrows (outer triangle) and soldier numbers (inner triangle) which can be rotated by the player.
Win the majority of conflict points or have the max points in case of a draw to win!
