* If, after the movement is complete, you are aimed at another Zamboni in range (within 4 squares) you can fire your laser. Zambonis can fire along straight or diagonal paths on the board. (However, you will need to use your last movement point to turn 45-degrees in order to fire a diagonal shot.) |

* If you have a clear shot, roll the six-sided die to see if you hit. If the target still has a complete Zamboni (one complete [[nest]]), you need a 5 or 6 to hit.

I created this game out of a desire to show demo attendees other games you could play using Treehouse and Martian Coasters. I like the idea of using Icehouse pieces on their sides à la [[RAMbots]] and thought a tank/maze battle would work really well with the various components. |
