Team RWBY try their hand at conquering Remnant a second time.
"Ha! Take that Ruby! Victory is within my grasp!" Yang did a little victory dance to accompany her announcement while Ruby laid down on the floor, tracing her cheek with a finger to imitate a tear falling down her face.
"I still don't know what's going on." Blake said, peering at her cards in obvious confusion. She sat on her mattress, perched above the game board, which sat on the dorm floor.
"It's easy. You just use the defense cads to boost your defense, or you could use the attack cards to add to your attack. The stadium cards add different effects depending on where you are, what kind of troops you have, and where your attacking." Yang explained quickly, pointing to the respective cards as she spoke. "Of course, it depends on what kingdom you are playing as- you're Vale- since the cards all have different attributes. Oh, but you can only use the stadium cards once every other turn, and you can only choose to attack or defend on your turn, you can't do both. You also get trap cards, and you can only put those down in specific areas depending on you battle points."
"It would be; if this game had any clear structure on how your supposed to do any of those things." Weiss snapped from the chair she sat in, because she refused to sit on the floor, as she once again flipped through the rule book. "There are too many exceptions to the rules, and don't even get me started on the 12 steps you have to go through to even begin to attack."
"It's clear enough." Yang insisted, looking to Ruby for an agreement.
Ruby nodded, but paused, shrugging instead. She and Yang had been playing this since they were kids, they were probably a little biased when it came to understanding the rules.
"I just don't know why I agreed to play this again." Weiss grumbled, slamming the rule shut and tossing it to the ground.
"Yeah, I asked you for weeks and you always said no. So why now?" Yang asked, drawing a card from the deck.
"Ruby wouldn't stop pestering me." Weiss admitted sourly, shooting Ruby a glare.
Ruby gave a sheepish smile, typing, "I kept poking her."
Yang started to chuckle, which quickly grew into full-fledged laughter. Even Blake let out a low chuckle at the statement.
"That's Ruby for you." Yang said with a breathless grin.
"So I've noticed." Weiss quipped back dryly.
"Wait, who's turn was it?" Blake questioned.
"Uh, it was Weiss's, right?" Yang stammered, looking to Weiss.
"I thought it was Ruby's." Weiss replied.
Ruby shook her head, pointing to Blake.
"So," Yang said. "who wants to start a new game?"
Her question was met by the collective groans of both Weiss and Blake.
