    Description

    This is a (relatively) straightforward card battle game that includes a pun (or two). The "fighter" cards that battle are futuristic spaceships called "Multi-dimension Attack Ships" (M*A*S), yeah, you can say "mass." There are cards that destroy an opponent's M*A*S. That card is called, of course, a "Weapon of M*A*S Destruction" (we warned you).

    That is a very powerful card, so before you are allowed to play it, you must announce it. If opponent has a Search card, he gets to search some of your cards to try to find it and remove it. The search card is called, of course, a "Search for Weapon of M*A*S Destruction" card. Cute.

    The search mechanics are interesting. Players play to win battles and gain Respect Points. When you find Weapons of M*A*S Destruction, you might gain respect (depending on which search card you have). When you don't find Weapons of M*A*S Destruction (depending on the card) you could "lose all your Respect." (ok, no more puns).

    Players take turns attacking, choosing between 3 types of attacks. Each card has a "weak spot" on it. During one phase of the game players try to name the weak spot of opponent's M*A*S -- If they do it is destroyed. (These "shots" at opponent's cards are called "long shots"). Battles are usually "2 on 2" with extra "destroy" and "search" cards. Cards are awarded to each player based on rules, mostly "who won the attack?"

    There is a Draw Phase, a "Deploy & Destroy phase" a "Long Shot" Phase, and an
    "Attack" Phase. After the Draw Phase, each of the 3 remaing phases provides
    interesting and different types of action. (See 'more info' below).

    2 to 6 players, best with 2 to 5 singles or teams of 2 or 3. 64 cards + instructions.
