Stratego is a popular board game that utilizes pieces which represent various classes in the military. Two players face each other in a battle of wit and strategy in an attempt to capture the opponent's flag on the battlefield. Given one move per turn, the challengers attempt to move their various pieces (Marshals, Generals, Colonels, Majors, Captains as well as Scouts, Spies and Miners) into positions of power without tipping each other off. The game is an excellent exercise for methodical thinking, deductive reasoning and logic. Both children and adults can learn and exercise their brains by enjoying this board game that challenges their minds, not unlike chess.

In this series, our expert Stratego player and instructor will demonstrate and explain the basics of Stratego, including important notes and information on each rank of piece and soldier on the board. Learn techniques for successful flag captures, alternative routes and methods for flag burning and attacks, setup strategies, placement considerations for scouts and spies, abilities of the pieces and ranks, and much, much more.
