Abstract: A board game assembly comprising a game board having a plurality of juxtaposed sections, selected ones designated thereon to represent individual states and forming a path for a player to follow about the board with a playing piece, other selected sections forming alternate paths. The amount of movement of each playing piece is determined by dice. An area is designated on each state section for receiving an erasable stroke by each player to indicate his degree of control of that section, each player provided with a counter for registering the number of strokes available to him during play of the game. Play money is provided each player to pay for either a degree of control of the particular section landed upon or to pay another player as reward for his control of that section. Certain other sections dictate the movement of his playing piece should a player land on those sections.
