Hand management games are games with cards in them that reward players for playing the cards in certain sequences or groups. The optimal sequence/grouping may vary, depending on board position, cards held and cards played by opponents. Managing your hand means gaining the most value out of available cards under given circumstances. Cards often have multiple uses in the game, further obfuscating an "optimal" sequence.
Hand Management
Games with partnerships offer players a set of rules for alliances and teams. Partners are often able to win as a team, or penalties are enforced for not respecting alliances
Partnerships
Player elimination occurs in multiple-player games (>2) when a player can be eliminated from the game and play continues without the eliminated player.

Monolith Arena's new implements offer an interesting addition to the Neuroshima Hex engine, but fans of Neuroshima Hex may find that the game doesn't quite offer much else to explore. The monolith mechanic needlessly attempts to add a strategic element to the highly tactical game, and it may also need further rules clarification. Still an excellent time, and a great option for anyone new to these games.

We won this game at a convention after one dissatisfying play. We have since played it again and I was not a fan. I just don't think I like this style of game.

an abstract with variable player powers -- if I need another my-deck-vs-your-deck game, this is an option monolith arena has bigger tiles neuroshima hex has life tracking dials neither game comes with drawstring bags zee said that monolith arena's base game armies are more differentiated than neuroshima hex's base game armies monolith arena is apparently hard to find?
