If the Spy attacks any other piece or is attacked by any piece including the Marshall, the Spy is defeated.

Tips and Warnings. Related Articles. Article Summary. Author Info Last Updated: August 10, Part 1. Set up the board. Each Stratego set comes with a 10X10 board to play on. The board is large enough to accommodate both players' armies plus non-moving pieces. The board has two 2X2 lake areas on it that pieces cannot move through and that act as the barrier space when you first set up the game.
Do not place any pieces on or near these spots when you set up the game. Keep the two center rows of the board empty until the game has started. Get familiar with the army pieces. Each Stratego game comes with two sets of army pieces one red and one blue. Each army has 33 army pieces and every piece is ranked from 1 is the lowest rank and 10 is the highest rank. Each set also includes 6 Bombs and 1 Flag, but these pieces are not ranked and they do not move.
Only the army pieces may move and attack. Choose your army color. Since there are two sets, you and your opponent will each have to choose a color before you can set up the game. Try choosing at random by holding two different color pieces in each hand so your opponent cannot see them and ask your opponent to choose one. Whatever color your opponent chooses will be his or her color for the game.
Put up the fortress screen. Before you set you your army pieces, you will need to set up the fortress screen to prevent your opponent from seeing how you are positioning your pieces.
Do not remove the fortress screen from the board until you and your opponent have finished setting up the board. Set up your pieces. As you set up your pieces, make sure that they are facing you and not your opponent. After you have set up your pieces, you are ready to play.
Part 2. Understand how gameplay works. You may not do both. If you find yourself in a position where you cannot move or attack, then you have lost the game and must announce your defeat to your opponent. Move your pieces. When one piece moves to a space occupied by an opponent's piece, both are revealed, and the weaker one is usually removed.
Some of the lower-ranked pieces have special abilities; for instance, the Spy is the only piece who can take the enemy General, but is otherwise weaker than every other piece, while Scouts can move any distance in a given direction though, since they are the only piece that can do this, it gives them away, and they are otherwise only able to beat the Spy if attacked , and Miners can defuse Bombs.
A flag, which the enemy is trying to capture. Bombs, which cannot be moved after being placed, but which destroy any enemy except for Miners that attack them.
