Darter
Darter
Darter is a quick strategy boardgame in which the players place tiles to affect the movement of 'darters', trying to destroy their opponent's base while protecting their own.
There are two categories of tiles; Impact tiles, which alter the course of the darter when struck; and Proximity tiles, which affect the darter when it passes through the tile's active squares.
Darter was showcased at GenCon SoCal 2004.
