Description

Physical Description:

A print in black of a five-sided shape that gives the impression of a gameboard, with an outer area split up into fifteen sections around a center area containing two die showing the numbers two and one. The outer sections contain directional arrows and icons including a cloud, a rocket, a bulls-eye target, a tank, a rifle, and dollar sign, and a sword. Three pieces sit in different sections, one in the shape of a plane, one in the shape of a ship, and one in the shape of a soldier with a bayonet.
