# Game Flow

Games are played in "campaigns". First, the players select a campaign they want to play. Upon starting a campaign:

* The player that lives their daily life the most "*tactically*" gets the first player token.
* Each player takes:
  * a player board
  * a player card and their corresponding figure / standy
  * 3 primary magazine tokens
  * 2 secondary magazine tokens
* Setup:
  * Piles / bags of:
    * Credits
    * Red & Yellow Marker Token
    * Door Token
  * Enemy detail cards laid-out somewhere easy to read/access
  * [Preparation Phase](/docs/readme/preparation-phase.md#the-armory)

## Campaign

A campaign is a series of 2-4 missions that the player must progress through in-order. Each mission gets increasingly difficult but the players will also earn more Credits to buy better gears.

A campaign may last more than 3 hours. The players may choose to play 1-2 missions in a sitting, then take a picture of the board, shops, etc., to continue the campaign in the next sitting.

## Mission

A mission lasts around 45 minutes to 1.5 hours.

### Mission Objective

The players must complete all **primary objective(s)** to complete the mission.

Certain missions may have **secondary objective(s)** which the players may complete for extra rewards for the next mission. These rewards are given during the Earn Credits step before the next mission.

Examples of secondary objectives are:

* Disarm both bombs within 10 player turns: +2 Credits
* Eliminate all hostiles: +1 Credits

### Phases

Each mission contains 2 phases. Preparation phase and Mission phase.

* 📝 Preparation Phase
  * Earn Credits
  * Armory
  * Mission Initialization
* Mission Phase
  * Environmental Phase
  * Player Phase
  * Enemy Phase

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://bhodgheymesdocumentation.gitbook.io/docs/readme.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
