Description

Description from the publisher:

Brace for Impact! is a 2-Player micro dice game that requires lightning-quick decisions, dexterity and stamina. As a Naval Submarine Commander your mission is to either gather enough vital intel or destroy your enemy’s crew before your enemy beats you to it. Each Commander controls two dice and a meeple crew aboard a submarine equipped with torpedoes. Surface and dive, load and fire torpedoes and manage your crew to become victorious. Do you have what it takes to win?

How to Play:

THE SETUP: Prepare for your epic battle by separating the black and blue game pieces. Each player receives two dice, 1 chit, 1 torpedo, and 3 Meeples of their color. The 8 intelligence gems and extra meeples are set off to the side within reach of both players.

Ready? START ROLLING! Engage your aquatic rival in a real-time, action-packed battle by rolling your dice. Manage to roll a 7 or doubles and you have a few options:

ON THE SURFACE: 7's on the surface allow you to dive underwater OR add 1 crew member. Doubles on the surface allow you to load your torpedo OR drop depth charges to remove 1 of your rival's gathered intelligence gems.

UNDERWATER: 7's underwater allow you to return to the surface OR gather 1 intelligence gem. Doubles underwater allow you to load your Torpedo OR fire your torpedo (if loaded) to remove 1 of your rival's crew members.

Play continues until a player loses their entire crew or gathers 5 intelligence gems!
