Which boardgame, War on Terror or Skirrid, involves translucent tiles?
War on Terror (game) War on Terror, The Boardgame is a satirical, strategic board game, produced and published in 2006 by TerrorBull Games. "War on Terror" was originally conceived in 2003 by Andy Tompkins and Andrew Sheerin, two friends based in Cambridge, England. The initial inspiration for the game came from the imminent Invasion of Iraq but, as a whole, was intended as a reaction and challenge to the counter-productive pursuit of the wider War on Terror. In 2005, Sheerin and Tompkins founded TerrorBull Games and gathered enough financial support from a mixture of friends and acquaintances to put "War on Terror" into production.
TAMSK TAMSK is the second board game in the "GIPF" Project of six abstract strategy games, and was published in 1998. Players move sand hourglass timers and drop plastic rings around spaces on a hexagonal board in an attempt to limit their opponent's moves. Each player starts the game with 32 rings, and the player with the fewest remaining rings at the end of the game is the winner. The game is unique among the "GIPF" Project games in having time as a central game component, and the manner in which time is used is possibly unique among board games in general.
