Button Battle

A fun war game with buttons

There are 2 players in this game. Each of them takes 12 big buttons that are "soldiers" and 1 button that is "an officer". Usually the players choose the most beautiful buttons for "the officers". Each player also takes a metal button for a bat.

The players form up the lines of their buttons opposite each other at the distance of 2 or more meters. The distance between the buttons in the lines must be about the size of the bat. "The officers" are put at some distance behind the lines.

The players put the bat in turn, trying to knock out "the soldiers" of the line. The button which considerably advances the line is considered to be knocked out. The overturned buttons are knocked out. The knocked out "soldiers" are "the captives" of the player who knocked out them. The player who manages to knock out the rival's "officer" takes half of the rival's "soldiers".

The game is over when one of the players has more soldiers by four than his/her rival.
