A Classic Game of War

War usually started out slow, waiting for the cards and the die rolls to allow the ‘generals’ to shape their board into a more maneuverable pattern. 

However, Ursa’s moves were quick and fierce, her movements speedy, barely allowing Orlov and Aisha to register what she moved and what she didn’t. Her rolls were quick, and even the way she picked up the cards were like lightning. The only thing that slowed her down was when she took extra seconds to show the cards to Ivan and quietly ask for his input. They would shortly discuss their next move before she put it into place.

Orlov was no slowpoke either-- after all, he had managed to beat a three time champion (his father) at least once or twice. But like his father before him, Orlov was a methodical player, instead choosing cautious moves and slower pieces to slowly terrorize his opponent.
