Siege Rules This
variant works best for three to six players. By random determination,
one player is “under siege.” The player under siege wins if all
other players are defeated; the other players form a loose team and win
if they defeat the besieged player. But wait-it’s not as unfair as if
sounds. Before the initial draw, the player under siege chooses from the
following options (one for each opponent):
In addition to the above advantages,
the player under siege also gets a “start-up turn” for every player
in the game beyond two. During these extra turns, no player may be
attacked by creatures or targeted by spells, but they may be targeted by
permanents. Once the start-up turns are done, other players draw their
initial hands. No Mulligans are allowed. Play starts with the player
under siege and continues to that player’s right. Now play progress as normal. Allied
players may discuss tactics, but communicating specific contents of
their hands or decks is prohibited.
