In Schotten Totten, nine boundary stones lie between you and your opponent. In front of each, you build poker-like formations of three cards on a side. Whoever plays the higher-ranking formation wins the stone. And in a unique twist, you may use your powers of logic to claim a stone even before your opponent has played all three of his cards, by demonstrating that the stone is impossible for him to win. Successfully claim five stones, or any three adjacent stones, and you win the game.

In 2000 GMT published a rethemed version as Battle Line which includes an extra 10 "tactics" cards that modify the standard game play, and with cards that run from 1 to 10 (instead of 1 to 9).

The 2004 Edition of Schottentotten has these "tactics" cards too.

Two player games that are compact and quick are perfect for any day of the week. I like to use this game to connect with my son when we get a moment. The game is exciting, and not too complicated.

Love this two-player game

Tough and crunchy decisions from beginning to end. You never know if the card you need is still in the draw pile or in your opponent's hand.

The single greatest 2p game ever designed!

First off, buy the Battle Line version from GMT Games if possible.

But either way, this game is pure genius from the one and only true and living doctor Reiner Knizia.

In my Top 5 Favourite games of all-time!

Great little trick taking game.

Great, quick game

Precursor to Battle-Line. Easy and quick to learn, but with lots of strategy to think about.
