About Paras
Paras is an area control, dexterity game for 2 to 4 players. All the action takes place on a 5x5 square wooden board. Each of the 25 territories is surrounded by a 3mm high border. Each player starts with 24 8mm cubed units. On each turn, you try to expand expand your control by choosing one of three options: Throw two dice on the board. Depending on where the dice land and what number is rolled, you may get to deploy your units. Move units on the board. Attack opponent units in an adjacent territory. (The attack mechanism is inspired by Classic Warlord and implemented with the blessing of Mike Hayes). In the basic game, the objective is to be the player who has the most territories when the game ends. For advanced play, specific missions can be set up before the start of play. —description from designer
