Taxonomy Questionnaire

Please use this questionnaire to make a determination as to where a game or activity might fit into a category. Traditional card games fall under Flechette Gun along with other card-based games. Checkers, Chess, and abstract games like Battleship could be considered wargames, but their level of abstraction and place in traditional board game popular culture mean they are best classified as Disruptor. If the findings of this procedure seem questionable, email the commander of the King Roger I Military Academy (COMKR1MA) for guidance.
