Toward the end of this century, Mankind will push north to the melting ice and the last of the recoverable crude. Each round, opponents take turns co-ordinating multiple units of varying ability (orders are placed and carried out), with the purpose of controlling as much battlefield as possible before the Arctic Oil Reserve runs dry.

There’s eight rounds-of-play and various ways to maximise Victory Points. Game duration falls between thirty and fifty minutes, depending on experience, with rules of around 1100 words. This is a 2-Player mini-version of a well-tested 4-Player game.
