Hostile Takeover
A downloadable Board Game
Hostile Takeover is a basic territory control war game. You and your friends must fight to take control of the fortifications in order to establish yourselves as the true leader of the city. There are a total of four groups vying for control and none of them are ready to back down. From their base of operations, they send out their units in attempt to acquire each facility. No one is infallible though and if a group loses all three of their units, they’re out. In this war, there will only be one victor; do you have what you need to defend against a Hostile Takeover?
Hostile Takeover is a spin on Piecepack. The additions are 12-sided dice and some blocks for buildings. If you already have a piecepack, it’ll help you save some time on getting setup. No two games play out exactly the same either, since the maps are player generated every session. It’s up to you how you play and where you deploy, but one thing is for sure, you don’t know who will win.
=================================================================
Hostile Takeover: هي لعبة حرب تقوم على السيطرة على الممتلكات. حيث يجب أن تقاتل أصدقاءك للسيطرة على الحصون من أجل ترسيخ أنفسكم كقادة حقيقيين للمدينة. تشمل اللعبة أربع مجموعات تتنافس من أجل السيطرة ولا أحد منهم مستعد للتراجع. يرسلون وحداتهم من قاعدة عملياتهم في محاولة للاستحواذ على جميع المنشآت. لا أحد معصوم من الخطأ على الرغم من ذلك، وإذا خسرت المجموعة كل وحداتها الثلاث، فستخرج من اللعبة. في هذه الحرب لن يكون هناك سوى منتصر واحد. هل لديك ما تحتاجه للدفاع عن ممتلكاتك؟
إنَّ Hostile Takeover هي نسخة قائمة على نمط Piecepack. تشمل الإضافات نرداً بـ 12 وجهاً وبعض الكتل التي تمثل المباني. إذا كان لديك لعبة Piecepack بالفعل، فستساعدك على توفير بعض الوقت في الإعداد. ستحظى بتجربة جديدة في كل مرة تلعب بها، نظراً لأن الخرائط يتم إنشاؤها بواسطة اللاعبين في كل مرة. الأمر متروك لك لاختيار الطريقة التي تلعب بها ومكان نشر قواتك، ومن المؤكد أنَّ لا أحد يعرف من سيفوز.

Hostile Takeover არის ტერიტორიის კონტროლის საომარი თამაში. თქვენ და თქვენს მეგობრებს მოგიწევთ ბრძოლა სიმაგრეებზე კონტროლის აღებისთვის, რათა დაამყაროთ თავი ქალაქის ნამდვილ ლიდერად. სულ ოთხი ჯგუფი იბრძვის კონტროლის აღებისთვის და არც ერთი არ არის მზად უკან დახევისთვის. საოპერაციო ბაზიდან ისინი აგზავნიან თავიანთ ქვედანაყოფებს, რათა დაეუფლონ ყველა ობიექტს.თუმცა, უშეცდომო არავინაა და თუ ჯგუფი დაკარგავს სამივე ქვედანაყოფს, ისინი ეთიშებიან თამაშს. ამ ომში მხოლოდ ერთი გამარჯვებული იქნება; გაქვთ ის, რაც გჭირდებათ მტერის დაპყრობისგან თავის დასაცავად?
Hostile Takeover არის Piecepack თამაშის ახალი ვერსია. დამატებულია 12 გვერდიანი კამათელი და რამდენიმე სამშენებლო ბლოკი. თუ უკვე გაქვთ piecepack-ი, ეს დაგეხმარებათ დაზოგოთ დრო განლაგებისას. ასევე, არ არსებობს ორი ერთნაერი თამაში, რადგან რუქები იქმნება მოთამაშეების მიერ ყოველ სესიაზე. თქვენ გადაწყვიტეთ როგორ ითამაშებთ და სად განლაგდებით, მაგრამ ერთი რამ ცხადია, თქვენ არ იცით ვინ გაიმარჯვებს.

When you click "More information" it says that the Hostile Takeover assets are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution v4.0 International license. Since they seem to be licensed under a Creative Commons license that allows file sharing would there be any issue if I uploaded the files to sites like BoardGameGeek and/or the piecepack wiki so more people could play your game (and you may accumulate more playtests and reviews)? In particular it seems like it may be a good match for people who have made themselves a set of piecepack matchsticks. Its a shame its too late for you to enter it into the piecepack matchstick portion of the ninth community piecepack game design competition... Thanks!
It's perfectly fine as long as credit remains on the files. I license my stuff this way on purpose because I believe things are made to be shared and remixed, not held onto for what monetary value they may have (I have huge issues with copyright and trademark law as they currently are in the US)
Thanks, that's great! I just wanted to double check that you were okay with me sharing them and that the CC BY 4.0 license was still in effect because as far as I can see this license isn't mentioned in any of the files themselves and you aren't allowing free downloads on itch.io. On the piecepack wiki it looks like I'll need to create new LanguageArabicCategory and LanguageGeorgianCategory tags!
Wait, I didn't put it in the man--of course i didn't. I made sure to label each physical copy with a sticker on the inside of the box and forgot to label the manual.
If anyone is interested, I made a little unboxing video showing what the physical game comes with.
How many players does this game support? What is the average game time?
It's 3-4 players and is about 30-45 minutes for a game. The fastest game I've seen was 20 minutes but that was by experienced players. Thank you for your question as well, I have now added that information to the game description at the bottom.
