Royal Garrison

Royal Garrison is the large-scale variant of Asalto, using a larger fortress, three Officers, and fifty Soldiers. All rules are mechanically identical to Standard Asalto — see that variant for full rule descriptions.

Differences from Standard Asalto

Feature Standard Royal Garrison
Officers 2 3
Soldiers 24 50
Board ~33 positions Larger; approximately 56–60 positions
Fortress 9 positions Larger fortress with additional rows

Win Conditions

Officers win when the Soldier force is reduced sufficiently that they cannot immobilize all three Officers simultaneously.

Soldiers win when all three Officers are simultaneously immobilized — no legal move available for any Officer.

Rules

All movement and capture rules are identical to Standard Asalto:

  • Officers: move 1 step or capture by jumping; multi-jump allowed; move in any direction.
  • Soldiers: move forward or sideways only; no jumping; no capture.
