Barrage: Duel

Barrage: Duel brings an exclusive map and a new board that change the 2‑player experience. With a base Barrage in hand, just add the map and you’ll notice the difference: fewer basins, higher construction costs, and, most importantly, three victory conditions that vary each game. Each round, the player who best satisfies a condition moves their marker forward, and the one closest to the finish gains decisive bonuses. The Duel board also introduces tug‑of‑war rules between opponents, making every duel more intense. The expansion works well with Leeghwater Project but isn’t required. The game keeps Worker Placement, contracts, income, and network building, but the novelty lies in the direct competition and varied setups. If you enjoy economic games with long‑term strategy and don’t mind remembering three different objectives each time, Barrage: Duel is the right pick. The game lasts about 120 minutes, perfect for those who like a balanced challenge and a touch of tug‑of‑war tension.
