Ro Sham Bo

From BoardGameGeek:

Venture into the world of Ro Sham Bo. The two player strategic board game where you collect wondrous artifacts to outwit your opponent and defeat them in battle. There are two types of Artifacts to choose from, tactfully traverse the board to collect these artifacts and use their power to give you positioning and combat advantages. Combat is engaged in close quarters through an attack and then counter phase. Use the Artifacts you collected to tactically turn tables. The true spirit is being able to chain these artifacts with one another. Do you have what it takes to go hand to hand? —description from the publisher
