Asalto

Asalto, also known as the Assault Game, German Tactics[1] or Officers and Sepoys, is a board game for two players in which one player, playing as the officers, attempts to defend a fortress from their opponent's invading rebels.

The game is a variant on the Fox and Geese theme, and is commonly played in Germany, France, and England.

The rebels' objective is to capture the two officers, surround them so that they cannot move, or occupy all of the points within the "fortress".

[2] Asalto is played on a grid of 33 intersection points in the shape of a cross, with a specially denoted arm known as the fortress at the top of the board.

[1] When playing German Tactics, the rebel pieces may not move along any horizontal lines except those at the top of the arms of the cross.
