Gibsons (UK) game L'Attaque (1909). It is not exactly the same, but not far from it (numbered pieces, spy (same name) can kill the strongest piece but only when attacking, flag, bombs, etc.) This game in turn almost certainly drew on the classic Chinese children's game Jungle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRe-implemented by:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStratego (Revised Edition) (aka Stratego Fire \u0026amp; Ice)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Generals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStratego Legends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStratego: Star Wars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStratego: Lord of the Rings Trilogy Edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUltimate Stratego\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectronic Stratego\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStratego: Marvel Heroes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStratego: Star Wars Saga Edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStratego: The Chronicles of Narnia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eand numerous others.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSimilar to:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdmirals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLu Zhan Jun Qi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eL'Attaque\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBatalj\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharpe's Attack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eDifferent Edition Complications\u003cbr\u003eWhen first produced in Europe, the most powerful pieces had higher numbers. I.e. the Marshall (most powerful piece) was a 10, the General was a 9, and so on. The higher the rank, the higher the number. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen they introduced Stratego in the USA, the numbering was reversed, so the Marshall was a 1, the General 2, and so on. The 1st rank (most powerful) was 1, the second most powerful was 2, 3rd most powerful was 3....\u003cbr\u003eThen, in 2000s Hasbro re-imagined Stratego in the USA and made a few changes. They reduced the number of pieces per side (from 40 to 30), added additional powers, and changed the numbering to reflect the European system. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis caused extreme consternation with many faithful American Stratego fans who preferred the 'old way'. (Actually the second oldest way, but whatever.) Many of these insist on playing Stratego with the 'Marshall 1 system'. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis wouldn't be a problem, except any and all discussions of Stratego are fraught with misunderstandings by those who are unaware of dual numbering systems! Keep this in mind when reading information about Stratego.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Jumbo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39594324295731,"sku":"J-81942","price":25.05,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/www.booyakajuice.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic3792397.jpg?v=1635326666","url":"https:\/\/www.booyakajuice.com\/products\/stratego","provider":"booyakajuice","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
