Tug
of war in the Scottish highlands.
Players play cards instead of using their own muscle-power in
this Scottish tug-of-war game. A player can play cards on either
side of the rope: high cards on his side and, naturally, low cards
on the other. With an energetic heave-ho!, players compare their
strengths and move the whisky barrel in the direction of the strongest
team. Beware: both players have access to a handful of tricks!
Traitors can exist on both sides. The rope can break! Or Nessie
can join one side to help or feed! At the end, the player who
has the whisky barrel on his side of the board, wins the round.
But a full match is the best of five rounds!
