Hive – The Boardless Board Game: Tactics and Strategies

Hive is a board game with a difference - it does not have a board. If you enjoy strategy games like chess and do not have an irrational fear of creepy crawlies, Hive could be the game for you. In this book, Hive addict Steve Dee will introduce you to the game and give you some tips on how to become a good player. You will find out about pinning and pin releases, blocking, circling, piece selection, openings, deciding whether to attack or defend, controlling placement, how to make the most of the pieces (including beetle attacks, and the new expansion pieces), playing defensively, and common mistakes to avoid.
