About Contra: The Board Game, from BoardGameGeek:
Contra: The Board Game is a card and dice driven strategy/action board game based on the classic video game.
Inspired by the classic Contra video game, players take on the role of iconic commandos that must survive dangerous stages and face off against huge bosses as they strive to take down the mysterious Red Falcon organization.
Focusing on quick, modular gameplay, Contra lets players choose which commando decks they want to pit against which boss decks, all within a tactical stage map driven by a stage deck. Gameplay involves hand management, dice mitigation, and an elegant control point system that lets players gain the advantage over their foes.
Gameplay utilizes the MDS (modular deck system) from Street Masters, Brook City, and Altar Quest. This allows a player to pick a commando's unique deck, select a stage, then select an enemy to create a unique scenario that gives players a multitude of combinations and re-playability.
