About the game
What you do in a play session
If you enjoyed the frantic chaos of the original Frag board game, get ready, because Death Match has arrived to add more fuel to the fire! This first expansion supercharges the base game with brand-new rules for team play, adding some cool elements to the board, like explosive barrels that will blow everything up and color-coded doors that complicate things (and strategy!).
The new Death Match map can even be connected with one of the maps from the original Frag, creating a giant arena for epic team battles. The expansion promises to make your Frag games even bigger, wilder, and, of course, deadlier. There are 16 new Weapon cards (with 9 new weapons!), 24 new Gadget cards (12 new ones), and 15 new Special cards (9 new ones) for you to cause even more destruction. Additionally, it comes with 6 new characters to assemble, flags, and markers for modes like Capture the Flag, explosive barrels, and mines. If you want more action and varied game modes for your Frag, this expansion is a perfect fit to boost the fun and mayhem!

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers before you buy
Do I need the base Frag game to play with this expansion?
Absolutely! Death Match is an expansion, so you need to own the base Frag game to use all its content and new rules.
How many players can participate with this expansion?
The expansion adds rules for team play, so the base game's player count (2-6) remains the same, but with new dynamics for larger groups.
What new things does this expansion add to the game?
It introduces a new board with elements like explosive barrels and color-coded doors, rules for team play and modes like Capture the Flag, plus new weapon, gadget, special cards, and characters.
Does combat get more complicated with the new additions?
The new weapons, gadgets, and board elements (like the explosive barrels) can indeed make combat more dynamic and unpredictable, but the complexity of the rules themselves doesn't drastically increase.
Can I connect this expansion's board with the base game's board?
Yes! One of the great advantages is that you can join the Death Match map with one of the original Frag maps to create a much larger and more epic game arena.
Who would enjoy this expansion the most?
It's ideal for those who enjoy Frag's direct action and combat and want more variety in game modes, especially if you like playing in teams or on larger maps.
