Game: Globalization

Goal: Collect six of a certain color bands

Rules:

-Four teams of two start in two separate 8' x 16' spaces (two in each space).

-Each team consists of a "trader" and a "runner"

-The trader picks six bands from the pile in their space (each space has identical starting piles: four of each color)

-Once each trader has picked their bands, they are randomly assigned a color to collect

-When play starts, the trader has to give his runner a band to put back in the pile in order bring back one of a different color

-Traders cannot tell the runners what to collect, it is up to the runner to figure it out.

-While this is happening two neutral runners are switching the items between the spaces. 

-Traders are allowed to trade with the other trader in their space.

-The first team to collect six bands of their assigned color wins.

Playtesting Results: 

-Neutral runners have too much power

-Making the neutral runners unable to see the piles alleviated the problem a little bit.

-It is hard to keep the traders from signaling what color they need.
