About the Game


The placing, stacking and attacking board game, where your goal is to capture every one of your opponent's pieces.


The game starts with a placement phase where players take turns placing roughly half of their pieces on the board.

From there, the main phase of the game begins, where both players try to capture eachothers pieces. During this main phase, players can place new pieces anywhere on their side of the board. Players can also stack pieces on top of eachother to grant their pieces additional range.




Once you have gotten the hang of it, try your skill on the competitive ranked ladder that features a one of a kind percentile based Elo system to see where you stack up against the rest of the community. Compete for glory and the chance to uncover the hidden super ranks.


Vantageous contains an in-game lobby system.
