Swipe War is a battlefield, army vs army strategy game; Swipe War is loosely based on a paper war game played with a pencil by children from the 1970s. To start, players purchase and deploy an army with 40 points. Units have varied costs and abilities, so arrange your army on the battlefield as desired. The player’s army is positioned on the bottom half of the battlefield and they will always swipe up at the enemy army, which is deployed at the top of the battlefield.
